I knew that there were Elk in Olympic National Park and we had seen one in the Hoh Rainforest on our trip there a few years ago, but I hadn’t expected to see them on this trip. As it turns out I saw them in again in the Hoh and wanted to photograph them in the lush green forests to contrast with the sea of browns of many of my elk pictures from Yellowstone. This bull was one of two that were browsing in the streams next to the Hall of Mosses Trail in the Hoh Rainforest.
