Spotted on the roadside some three miles from the summit of Larch Mountain near the Columbia Gorge in Oregon
Douglas fir 50+ year regrowth forest
I'm guessing it's probably deer, but I'm really not up on my non-human osteology :)

I totally should have put something in there for scale. At a guess, the one on the right was about nine inches in length. Thanks for the link!
At first glance they look like elk bones. (a vertebrae and a rib bone) Do you have any measurements?
