Estes Park, Colorado (PRWEB) September 16, 2006 -- Elk Fest is the Super Bowl for Colorado wildlife and it’s in Estes Park, Colorado on the weekend of September 30 and Oct 1, 2006. When the chill of the late afternoon gives in to long shadows covering the valley floor of Rocky Mountain National Park, nature’s grandest wildlife spectacle begins…the Elk Rut.

A bull from the forest edge trumpets a challenge to his opponent who frantically guards his harem by circling his herd, anticipating a duel that’s marked by crashing antlers. Exciting education events will be offered by a Rocky Mountain National Park naturalist, as well as park rangers from the Division of Wildlife Colorado. Learn the art of elk bugling for a closer shot…with your camera.
