Title: Moose SW of Pasco/Tri Cities?
Post by: longstevo on October 10, 2014, 05:55:12 AM: I've been hearing rumors from reliable sources that there's been a moose spotted SW of Pasco in and below the Wallula Hills. Has anyone heard anything about it?

For those who don't know the area, the Wallula Hills/Wallula Gap is nothing but steep, rimrock cliffs and cheat grass sidehills. What would a moose be doing out there? :dunno:

That being said, there are pretty secluded areas down near the river with lots of backwater ponds where the only people that would see it would be the RR crews.
