Due to the long drive up to Colorado and back I was able to see many a creature. In rough order of appearance:
On the way to Crested Butte:
1. Two Bald Eagles (individually, north of antonito)
2. A fox
3. Millions of fat telephone pole perching hawks
4. Mule Deer
5. Elk
In Crested Butte:
6. Fat mouse/kangaroo rat during the race
On the way Back:
7. Antelope
8. Big horn Sheep
9. Coyote
After a nighttime ski tuesday in Los Alamos:
10. Bobcat
As a bonus, Elena and I spotted another Bald eagle above the Rio Grande at Ottowi Bridge on Saturday.
Now all I need to see is a mountain lion, oryx, and a moose and I can retire.

Just be careful, I hear that moose like to eat cyclists.
It's some sort of delicacy to them.
