Epic 30 Minutes of Photography in Big Cottonwood Canyon
I was planning to go mountain biking at Solitude while my wife ran but on the way up the clouds were low and the light was amazing so I decided to drop her off and come back down to the meadow by Mill D under Kessler Peak. I started shooting the trees and fog and about 5 minutes into it I noticed a moose about 30 feet away to my left. She was pretty dark so I got a few shots with her then went back to shooting the fog. I had heard a few noises behind me for a few minutes and eventually realized that a calf was still on the other side of the road. I gave them some room and actually stopped a car on the road so it could cross.
I got some decent shots of the moose with Kessler Peak as they crossed the creek and went off to the South. I love an amazing photo session about as much as I love a good powder day. Both have me whooping like a schoolgirl and I still made it back to pick up my wife on time. Save the bike ride for another time.
