Jason's Outdoor World

Moose Photo

One time, my dad and I went backpacking, and camped in Poudre Canyon, near Cameron Pass. We set up camp, and got our fire going. We heard a sound in the trees across the river. It was a male, female, and baby moose. The male crossed the river, and stared at us. My dad had his revolver ready, "He's just protecting his young!", I said. "That's all I'm doing bud.", He said.
