Moraine Park

The roads were incredibly icy in the park. We opted to hike from the YMCA into Moraine Park in search of elk instead. A large herd was lounging out in the sun, but they were skittish as we approached, probably because our snowshoes were making so much noise.

The Mummy Range was snow covered in the distance. Ypsilon and Fairchild appeared to be standing guard over the park.

At the far end of Moraine Park, we found some sunny rocks that protected us from the icy breeze. Muneca found her way out of the pack and into the fresh air. She's dressed for the winter.
