Utah national parks trip in June

How about parking a car in the middle of the two lane road with a rise on one side and dropoff on the other (not total shelf road) with no real shoulder and no rail. Then get out and run up - with wife and kid - the rise to take pictures of elk; as you leave the doors open.

Reminds me of working in Yellowstone in the early '70's. Remember Instamatic cameras? The ones with the tiny lens and tiny negatives? I was headed into the South Entrance and saw a woman get out of a car with New York plates. The engine still running and driver's door open, she was walking up to a bull moose with her Instamatic up to her eye. She was trying to get close enough to fill that tiny lens with the animal! I quickly went around the car and around a curve in the road, so never saw the result. Do these people think that they are at a zoo?

Apologies to the OP for hijacking the thread!
