Bull Moose Resting in Cascade Canyon

A bull moose rests in Cascade Canyon in Grand Teton National Park, Wyoming.

Going back to the Paintbrush Canyon to Cascade Canyon Loop I did a few weeks back, I was coming down Cascade Canyon, knowing I only had a few miles left, so I was sort of just in the mindset of wanting to be done. I rounded a corner and saw a small crowd looking through the bushes, at which point I looked over and saw some pretty large antlers sticking up through the leaves. I wanted to stick around and wait till he got up, however in addition to getting a little exhausted with still about five miles to go, I was also getting a little sun-burned and hanging around in a meadow wasn’t the ideal situation.

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. As a result, every animal photographed on this website was done so in its wild and natural habitat.

Based in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, I thoroughly explore the wonders of Grand Teton National Park and its surrounding areas, including the Gros Ventre Wilderness, Yellowstone National Park and much more.

I've come to love this region much more than anywhere I've lived, and with your helpful support, I can continue to give back to this community that keeps me enthusiastic each and every day. Read more...
