Brother Fubar;
Me again my friend, thanks for that photo.

We've seen it twice now and both times it was just jaw dropping for me.

I know you get to see the big Rockies on that island if I recall correctly, so you're getting to view some in the wild that I'll only dream of.

If anyone is going through Whitehorse, there is a game farm a bit north of town where they have a Stone and a Dall that are positively huge. I know it's not the same as a wild ram, but they still took my breath away Brother Fubar.

My long time friend took his ram this fall less than a kilometer from where I'd got one 31 years and 2 days previous to that. We were two weeks into the season, the rams had stopped showing up in the unusually hot fall and I suggested we go look at the ridges I used to chase sheep on and still chase mulies most falls. Sure enough, we put a couple nice ones to bed Friday night and he was able to get one Saturday morning.

Mine was 7½ and his was 2 years younger but a much heavier ram all around. It's amazing what better genetics and a good forest fire will do for the herd. wink

This as they say, used to be me...
