Colorado State Forest - February 2002 - We hiked around the Nokhu Crag in the Colorado
State Forest. We also drove around looking for moose. We actually found our first moose
here. It was at a moose overlook...which we thought was ridiculous. We drove out to the
overlook just so we could make fun of it. I mean, how could they predict where the moose
would be? So we stood there on the platform and made fun of it. And after about 5 minutes,
Tracy said, "Hey, is that a moose down there?" We stared for another 5 minutes while I
argued that it was a tree, and she argued that for a tree it was sure twitching its ears a lot.
After about 5 minutes, the "tree" finally moved its head, and it was definitely a cow moose. So
we then had to make fun of ourselves...although, Tracy was mostly just making fun of me...
