Wildlife Viewing

This activity is the favorite of all Alpine visitors and residents. Our forests, lakes, streams, and mountain meadows host a variety of wildlife. It’s an excellent way to understand all four seasons as we witness the changing wildlife life cycle. Some of our resident mammals are: elk, deer, bear, mountain lion, bobcat, fox, coyote, reintroduced Mexican Gray wolf, raccoons, skunks, Abert squirrel, and chipmunks. Large groups of elk often congregate in the open meadows around Alpine. Be very cautious driving at dusk and at night due to the elk that are often grazing along the roadways.
