The King of Estes Park

[Ah Pook]

That's a big boy. Hopefully there aren't any Boulder cops around.

Or an idiot with a bow & arrow.

RIP Sampson.

That is a big elk.

Now I'm all hungry.

6x7 Full body bull, with ~18" brow tines? There may be a few bigger than him, but I would argue that "many bigger" assertion.

If that boy walked in front of me during season at my spot, I would be overjoyed to pull that trigger. 95%+ serious hunters go hunting multiple seasons every year for their entire life and never get an opportunity for and bag a bull like that.

Yes, they can and do get bigger, but that is a definitely a trophy bull.

Wow! What a big, gorgeous elk. Thanks for sharing your photos- I don't get up to Estes very often, so that's a treat to see.
