Wow! I'm pretty sure that was an Elk! Awesome rack on that guy!!! My son and I hiked around the canyon last fall (Nov 2009), and we saw elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, coyote, condors - the place is loaded with wildlife. A ranger told us there were mountain lions around, but very few people ever see them.

WOW and from the car

We had actually passed them in the truck and then backed up to get a better look. They were not scared at all.

@planot171 Wow, I didn't realize they got that big. One of the funnier things I saw on my GC trip last Thanksgiving - wish I had gotten a pic of it - was mule deer eating the feed inside the mule corral near the backcountry office. Then later int he trip I saw the same thing down by the NPS corral at Phantom Ranch.

Nice video you got there... It's nice to see a mule deer. Do you have more Arizona Adventures that I can watch? I loved your post. I'd be happy to share with you my videos too. Take care=)
