Moose Drooling in the Green River

A moose drools in the Green River as it pauses from a drink near Green River Lakes, Wyoming.

In digging back into my archives, I didn’t get too far before noticing I hadn’t posted anything from a short trip to the Green River Lakes back in July. I was almost to the campgrounds when I saw this moose standing in the middle of the Green River, which originates up in the Wind River Mountains in Western Wyoming and meanders its way down to Central Utah where it meets up with the Colorado River in Canyonlands National Park. I followed her for just a bit until she disappeared behind some willow trees on a small island in the river.

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.

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.
