Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. ANTE_030520_075.JPG: This was the only bison I could see up close on the island. The others were in a restricted part of the island because they were in their calving season. I could see them as little dots by a hill but that was about it. I'm not sure why this one was such a loner.

Wikipedia Description: Antelope Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Antelope Island, with an area of 42 square miles (68 km�), is the largest island in the Great Salt Lake, the largest lake in the Western United States, and the largest saltwater lake in the Western Hemisphere. The island lies entirely within Davis County, in the southeastern portion of the lake and becomes a peninsula when the lake is at extremely low levels. Antelope Island holds populations of pronghorn antelope, bighorn sheep, 600 American Bison and millions of waterfowl. The Bison were introduced to the island in 1893, and have proven to be a valuable genetic pool for Bison breeding and conservation purposes.

State Park:

Antelope Island State Park is a state park located on the island, established in 1981, part of the Utah State Parks System. The island is accessible via a 7 mile (11 km) causeway from Syracuse in Davis County. Access from I-15 is via Exit 332, Syracuse/Antelope Drive (SR-108). The island's shore is mostly (all but west side of the island), relatively flat with beaches and plains to the base of the mountains on the island. These steep mountains are visible from most of the northern Wasatch Front, reaching a maximum elevation of 6,596 ft (2,010 m), which is about 2,500 feet above the level of the lake.

Antelope Island State Park operates a 10 watt travelers information station on 530 kHz AM. The transmitter is located on the south side of the causeway close to the island itself. This station can be heard in nearby Ogden and as far south as Salt Lake City, Utah. It carries information about the park's hours of operation, as well as promotes upcoming events that the state park coordinates.

(Only some pages are loaded with full-sized images and those usually get removed after three months.) I still have them though. If you want me to email them to you, please send an email to guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can email them to you, or, depending on the number of images, just repost the page again will the full-sized images.

2003 photos: Equipment this year: I decided my Epson digital camera wasn't quite enough for what I wanted. Since I already had Compact Flash chips for it, I had to find another camera which used CF chips. That brought me to buy the Fujifilm S602 Zoom in March 2003. A great digital camera, I used it exclusively for an entire year. Trips this year: Three-week trip this year out west, mostly in Utah. Number of photos taken this year: 68,000.
