Event Details

“Wow! That’s a monster elk!” You can hear comments like this all day from elk admirers up and down the trails at Keystone Elk Country Visitor Center, but is it really a monster elk? Using a scientific technique to estimate the size of dinosaurs, it’s relatively easy and accurate to estimate the weight/mass of an elk from tracks it leaves behind with a fair degree of accuracy. Come and join us as we separate the “monsters” from the lightweights.
