Big Bull Drinking
This is a later shot in the same sequence as below. If you are thinking about visiting Boxley Valley, it is time now. The rut is peaking, and shooting will be great for about another month, and very good until the end of the year. Fall color is now pretty good.

Crossing the Upper Buffalo National River
This big bull is a couple of years from competing in the rut. He has joined a bachelor herd and stays away from the rut.

Elk Photographers at Boxley Valley, Buffalo National River near Ponca, AR
Great photography opportunities exist now in the 2012 Arkansas elk rut. The rut hit peak just last week and cold weather has kicked the rut up a notch. A great place to visit for photographers from many states.

Satellite Bull Crossing Buffalo National River
This picture is from a Buffalo River Crossing I shot on 10/5. This is my favorite shot because of the light.
In NW Arkansas we have just entered the peak elk rut. Few people know how good elk photography is here. Our elk are in a box canyon and readily accessible. For the next 5 weeks we are in prime time.
