On our way to dinner we decided to take the scenic route to look for wildlife. We drove up Pyramid Lake Rd, where Christi spotted an elk in the forest. We were all so excited we all ran out with our phones and cameras to take pictures...doors left open, may have even left our vehicle running. We were so excited. Captured some great pictures, before heading back to the vehicle. We headed up the road further and found an entire heard of elk on the outside of a ranch for horseback riding. Quite incredible, we even spotted a baby nursing on the mama elk - beautiful!
