We brought Flat Stanley down to the Town Square. This is a very famous part of Jackson Hole. Almost everybody drives through the Town Square at least once! People from all over the world talk about the Town Square in Jackson Hole. There are 4 things on the Town Square that make it very famous. Millions (yes millions) of people have their photos taken with these "things". Flat Stanley got very close to investigate what they are made out of.
Does this photo give you a clue?
More Clues:
- They are part of a large animal found around the Jackson area
- They fall off every Spring, and grow back bigger each year
- Only male animals have these
- They are on the head!
This is a picture of an Elk Antler Arch... It is huge and there are hundreds of elk antlers that make up this arch.
There is one arch on each corner of the square. That is a whole lot of elk antlers!!
Elk are a big part of Jackson Hole. Most of these antlers were collected on the National Elk Refuge. This is located just outside of town.
Even though it is October, you can see it is pretty cold! We bundled up for our walk and I can say we were glad that Flat Stanley was wearing a hat! Print this post
