Wild Elk

Depending on the season, there’s a very good chance you’ll spot elk around town in Payson. If you’d like to increase your chances of seeing them, consider contacting Craig Miller 928-468-1482 for a guided elk tour and to learn some of his tricks for getting great photos like these below.

Craig took all of the beautiful photos below and has generously allowed us to share them here.  Craig sells these and other gorgeous photos. We hope they give you a glimpse of the majestic elk that make Payson such a special place to visit.

Please remember that these are wild animals. Unlike some of the folks in the photos below, please keep a safe and respectful distance. 

And if an elk happens to wander into the road, please be patient. We love these majestic animals and respect their right to share this beautiful place we call home.
