Are the elk in estes park in August?

Yes, elk can be found in Estes Park in August. During this time, they are often seen in and around Rocky Mountain National Park, as this is part of their summer range. However, keep in mind that elk are more active during the early morning and late evening hours, making these times the best for viewing. Additionally, August marks the beginning of the elk rutting season, which typically starts in late September, so you might observe some early behaviors related to mating.
