Killed this gal this morning, had a black male with her that I wanted oh so badly but couldn't make it happen. Saved a few sheep today, though I cant say the same for the bou, watched 3 of these guys kill 2 Caribou in less than an hour this morning.Ranged at 358 yards with new Zeiss range finder I got from Doug yesterday morning, and killed by a POS (grin) Tikka 30-06 and 165 CoreLocs. That exit is nasty, but theres only a golf ball size hole letting everything out.

Probably just tan it, she's not all that big. The black male that was with this one, was easily 1/3 bigger, man I wanted him bad!!

Know that feeling.

Real bummer - let it not spoil your fun with this one, though.

She looks big enough from here.

How did it go? Pray tell.

The most important part of this story is......dont leave your snowshoes at home when you head to the Brooks Range in March! A 500 yard march uphill in thigh to waist deep snow sucks azz! This is the picture that you never see, me sucking wind and sweating like you know what trying to read.

Great story and pics. One less wolf is a good thing.

Great looking wolf! I'd love to be able to snuff one of those out.

Did she come off the Haul road?


I wanted to take a scalp, but the kill was not mine.

Yes. That is how one drives to the Brooks Range.
