Summary

[edit]
Description

Elk are frequently seen from the park entrance road in early morning or evening during quieter months. Originally more of a prairie animal, elk have largely been pushed into the mountains by land development and hunting pressure. Great Sand Dunes National Park protects a huge portion of natural grasslands where thousands of elk thrive year round. Watching these majestic animals roam in wide-open spaces is yet another inspiring experience at Great Sand Dunes! Photo: NPS/Patrick Myers
