wyoelk: .... and the GPS-coordinates of those 2 “bruiser” Rams are ... ? <grin>

Here’s an item I forgot to add from his call on the 31st. While out scouting, they have met one other tag holder, who has one buddy along for scouting/packing ... as they are also DIY hunting. So if the guide (Mike) has 2 clients and 2 others are accounted for ... that only leaves 4 other Bighorn hunters in the entire unit.

Received a brief text-only message this am ... They have moved their area of focus about 15 miles away (as the Vulture soars) and have no new Rams yesterday or this am. He is working his way along a ridgeline that he says: Looks like it should be re-named “Bighorn Paradise”. Yesterday, he nearly stepped on a 4-foot rattler ... <--- one of the hazards of actually getting out and hunting vs. truck scouting. Maybe you really need 4 people along to hunt this country ... a gun bearer, a water-boy, a Snake-wrangler and a great B’wana.

I always felt that rather than spot-stalk, he would most likly end up shooting a Ram that he intercepted (while bedded) ... by sneaking up on it, while out scouting (through prime country) and shooting one at 75-100 yards.
They only have 2 rigs, so rather than continue to scout as two “pairs” ... they are dropping 1 person off ... to hike/climb to a vantage point and glass, while the second person goes on to another spot, to do the same.
