Morgan @littlesisterstudios stopped by my booth at the @parksillysunday this weekend. She’s an amazing artist, and created the original watercolor moose on the organic baby set above. #littlesisterstudios #parkcity #parkcitymoose #parksillysundaymarket #visitparkcity #mainstreetparkcity #historicparkcity #cadeandco #madeinutah #parkcitystyle (at Park Silly Sunday Market) https://www.instagram.com/p/BztAjUyFt7U/?igshid=1p2fguv065pg9

Moosing around Park City! 🌿🍃  10 Fun Facts 🐾-  

As it gets colder and colder in Park City, moose will start popping up more and more. Whether on the golf course or on Main Street, it is always a good idea to keep your eyes peeled.

Here are 10 facts about these fun creatures!

The term moose means one who eats twigs.

Male moose are known as “bull moose.” Female moose are called “cow moose.” Baby moose are “calf moose.”

To maintain its weight, a moose must eat almost 10,000 calories (they are herbivores so this is hard to do)!

Moose are MASSIVE. A full-grown moose can be 5-8 ft and weigh 1,200 pounds!

Bull moose “bellow” to lure cow moose during mating season.

Moose rely on their sense of smell (they have poor eyesight).

Bull moose shed their antlers from December to March (which can weigh almost 40 pounds) - AND YES, they use their antlers when fighting.

The life span of a moose is 15-25 years.

Moose can swim.

Moose can run 35 miles per hour.

MOOSE CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. Exercise extreme caution when encountering these creatures. On October 23, 2017, a women was trampled near Jeremey Ranch by a female moose (See http://fox13now.com/2017/10/23/woman-trampled-by-a-moose-injured-badly-near-jeremy-ranch/) .

The pictures below were taken by guests and members of the team at Elevation Lodges. Again, we don’t recommend getting this close! Please let us know if you have any awesome MOOSE photos we can use!

Our guests were lucky enough to find two moose on their hike yesterday!!! ⛰👟🌿  They hiked up Main Street and onwards onto Daly.  They said they saw the moose about 10 minutes after they went around the water tower.
