Rangers at Wind Cave National Park will be leading programs throughout September and early October to listen for the bugle of the Rocky Mountain elk. The elk’s high-pitched whistle heralds the arrival of fall and the elk’s mating season.
Beginning Monday, September 8, rangers are giving brief interpretive programs about elk before leading a caravan to a nearby pullout to listen for them. These one-hour programs are offered Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings through Saturday, October 8.
Where to Meet:
The Wind Cave Visitor Center front lawn at 7 p.m.
What to bring:
A flashlight, a camp chair or blanket to sit on, and to dress warmly. The program will be cancelled due to inclement weather.
