Moose Tracks

I was walking back to our 33.5 acres of land behind our house where I had to take pictures of our fort students had worked on for a blog. When about 15 feet into the woods I came across huge tracks in the pathway. I knew they weren't deer tracks because they were humongous. They had the shape of a deer track but about the size of a grown mans hand. What is shown in the picture is half a stride one stride looked to be about six and a half feet. I have never seen a moose up in the North Country, but have seen one in the Adirondack's.
