10/31/13 Elk Herd Locations

This morning there were herds visible at Ponca and at the south end by the South Trailhead.  A third herd is hanging around the Old Steam Sawmill near the church. I would hear it, but it was behind the first tree line.

This is a breakthrough compared to recent viewing.

This afternoon the fall color could be amazing. The morning rains are gone by noon according to the radar -- quicker than predicted. I will be out scouting fall color this afternoon in what I consider ideal conditions -- after a fall rain.  Color will be pretty good for at least a week.
