Alaska Sheep hunt

Post by Tyrant »

Chasing Dall sheep in the Wrangle Mts.
Saw 9 rams, One legal ram that gave us the slip ( broomed both horns ) and spent 2 days chasing one ram that was about 3/4" shy of legal ( judged @ 150YDS with 60X Swaro spotter ) we packed everything in on our backs. Climbed a 6640 peak couple of times and several smaller peaks. Saw a good Billy but due to not having a harvest ticked he is still breathing....
We were in a full curl and non motor area, rode bikes 8 miles and walked 3 days to get were we began seeing rams..

Neat. Thanks for sharing.

I'm headed to west slope of CO in a couple weeks with great intentions of filling my cow elk tag (and my empty freezer). Will bring the camera... and should be able to return with a story.
