Getting closer to Mammoth, these guys are right by the road.

Another one right by the road.
|
Undine Falls, this was the only open spot on the whole falls....
|
More Elk feeding right by the road.

They were all over the place, right after I took this a snowplow came by and got them moving!

Still more...

Thought the snow in the trees looked really cool.

Another cool tree shot...

This shot didn't turn out as cool as it looked...the mountain in the background was really bright as the sun hit it.
|
Again, not as cool as it really was..
|
This one is a little better..
|
The Arch has been here awhile.
|
Thanksgiving Day...and Electric Peak

If this was summer, the car jam would be a mile long...today, it's only me!

This is on the Blacktail Plateau, looking west.

The big peak in the foreground is Bunsen Peak, me and Jack climbed this bad boy a couple years ago.

Electric Peak, in the far distance..
|
One last buffalo shot, near Lava Creek.
