Still looking for places to see moose?


We've still been thinking about places to see live moose. Gunflint Trail (logo at left) is in northern Minnesota, but that's not the only place in the US to see moose.
Mooseworld has an extensive list of travel destinations where moose sightings are likely. These include national parks (Denali, anyone?), state parks, and resort areas in the United States, as well as some locations in Canada and Europe. Even if you can't travel to any of these destinations, check out the websites. Some of them have beautiful pictures and interesting information about moose.

Finally--for today--if you like photography or you just like moose, take a look at the Photographing Maine Moose website. You'll find a first-hand account of a moose-photography outing, including a vivid description of a close encounter and tips for finding and photographing moose. The photos are gorgeous, too! In fact, for more photos by the same artist, see the Moose Gallery which displays and sells the images.
