Moose & Solstice

Hi All,

Shortly after breakfast we noticed about a dozen photographers behind our coach. It was a photo seminar led by a local Jackson, WY professional and they had found "our" moose. A young male and female, probably siblings from last year were browsing in the willows 50 yards behind our site.

After an otherwise quiet day, we drove to Coulter Bay for a Summer Solstice potluck with the other wildlife brigade volunteers.

Here Carol Schoner tells the story of the WY woman who celebrated the solstice in the 1920's by throwing red dirt in the fire. We did the same. It's a fun group of people.


On the way home we watched the sun set behind the Teton Range. It was after 9PM and the sun still shone through Cascade Canyon. This is, after all, the longest day of the year!
As we pulled into our campsite we found a cow moose and calf feeding next to our motorhome. It was wonderful to see but we think this might be the same cow we previously photographed with two calves :-(.

Love,
