[size=large]Hi Everyone, Mark was driving 65 mph this morning when a herd of seven elk ran out from over a big hill and they ran right into him. These are some pictures of the accident this morning. He was driving from Show Low to Payson at 6:45 am. All seven elk were killed and two of them were lodged underneath the front of the car when Mark skidded into the side of the mountain and into a ditch. They were his cushions! Two elk came up over his hood and smashed into his window and the other three went flying over the car and into the highway. They had to shut the road down so they could get the elk out of the way. It looked like a war zone. There was one male, four females and two calves. The pictures are very sad to see.
The front and side airbags were deployed and except for a few minor burns and cuts, Mark walked away from this without any injuries.
I was in Show Low when a man called me to tell me that Mark had been in this accident. Mark
