This is where the photo I posted came from, and has more details. A moose was recorded crossing I90 at Snoqualmie Pass in August, possibly the same one?

Here is more detail and some history about the wildlife crossings.

This is so cool! When's the last time we had a moose in this part of the state?

We get moose all the time in the Spokane area. They’re mean.

I remember being late to work once because there was a moose on the state line bridge. Sent a photo to my boss to explain why I wouldn't be on time.

I had no idea they weren't as common at Rainer as over here.
