I've seen some great summer elk herds along Stony Pass outside of Silverton but I guess when I'm concentrating on Conejos trout I don't look up enough to catch a rare glimpse of an elk. Headed back in late July and I'll scan the ridges better. Thanks for the wildlife and views!
I have not seen these types of herds on the Conejos side, I know they cross over from LaJar Reservoir side down to Conejos River, and up into Wilderness Area. These are on "our" side on Alamosa Canyon
