Difference is the majority grow up shooting does or small whitetail bucks. So very fortunate to grow up & shoot dink Dall sheep. Bob Enjoy life now -- it has an expiration date. ~Molɔ̀ːn Labé Skýla~

It was 18miles backpacking to the sheep mountain, last visited 30 years before, and two back to back semi-blizzards. I posted on it then. We were still 3 miles off when we bailed due to time constraints. (There is WAY more to this story!!! ) Killed a caribou on the way out, after hiking right through hundreds of them on the way in .. We were going sheep hunting, dammit! It was a pretty good non-sheep hunt! Last edited by las; 03/31/17. The only true cost of having a dog is its death.

I'm getting ready to spend 5 months in the Brooks Range so maybe I will learn to like that even more. Can't wait to throw a few spinners and flies...
