and Mammoth Hot Springs To some extent they are fed hay by the aut authorities of Fort Yellowstone which serves serve serveto to render them less timorous and to domesticate them in some degree The

Countless numbers numbers- an and dunn during the summer they are not not- infrequently seen by the tourists from the stage coaches They seclude themselves more or less Jess however in the valles valleys and timber They rhey can be found by t the e hundreds around Shoshone lake and in Hayden valley and there are bands of them that frequent the upper parts of Mount Washburn and Dunraven peak Those who wish to see large bodies of ol elk young and old can easi easily y d do so by riding on horseback a few miles nules up Alum creek from either the Grand can canyon canyon can can- anyon an-

them Any evening g or morning with rare exceptions from one to twenty twenty twenty ty or more may be seen eating from the refuse piles of the hotels They are extreme extremely y interesting an and if people attend attend attend at at- tend to their own business and leave lea the animals alone they are not ot in in the least dangerous Without being intrusive tourists ma may approach sufficiently near to enjoy their theu antics and movements without the slightest danger In n portions of the park nark naturally those somewhat retired and secluded seclude there are many beavers and they are flourishing and increasing Perhaps the point where these industrious animals may most conveniently be seen by visitors visit ors ore to tp the park is at Yanceys Yancey's where there ther V are several colonies of them Here among the brooks in this beautiful beautiful beautiful ful part of the park they may b be found with their dams houses ponds and slides and one may easily usually in the morning or evening see them swimming about in the water or cutting down trees on land laying i in their store of food for winter A Great Trip From the very start of a trip through the Yellowstone Park
