Bull Moose Near the Gros Ventre River

A moose wanders through the snow along the cottonwood trees lining the Gros Ventre River in Grand Teton National Park.

I found this bull moose near the intersection of Highway 89 and Gros Ventre Rd. I saw him on my way into Kelly but he was too far down the ridge to get any good shots. On my way back out however, he was standing at the top of the ridge and the weather in the background had built up a bit giving it a much more dramatic look.

Free Roaming Photography, Photography by Mike Cavaroc, is my portfolio and vision of the natural world. As a nature and wildlife photographer, I am striving to reach the angles of landscapes that haven't been documented before as well as finding the dramatic nature of wildlife in its natural state.
