After "willing it" for four days to see a moose, we finally saw one this morning on a Pinebrook Trail in Park City, Utah-(the IDare trail). A site like none other of a big brown furry creature (we named it Gladys...as in glad for us!). The moose was a quite a surprise as we were hiking down the mountain with four people and two dogs that kind of made some "human hiking noises". And let's not forget that moose do not like dogs of any sex, creed or stature. So as we admired this beautiful creature in which we thought from a "safe distance", we quickly learned she did not feel the same. As she began to lick her lips and begin her approach to us fairly quickly, we did an about face on the trail and ran down part of the mountain; hearts pounding!
A great hike to finish our Utah adventure and drive the eight hours back to Boulder, Colorado.
BSoleille,
