----------- HD 301 ----------- 301-10: 5 licenses. � Sep 15 - Nov 27 � Any Ram Bighorn Sheep.
Pete Congrats! I've hunted in that unit quite bit for sheep, back when it was an unlimited unit. It got a little hectic with all the hunters at times but there were always rams to found. We took a high 170's ram out of there in 1997 a few years before they closed the unit. There was a ram with him that would have gone over 180. As far as I know he was never killed and is long gone. There should be some really nice old rams in there. Pm me and I'll let you know where the ram holes are where I used to hunt....bet there are still rams in those same places now.
Luck....is the residue of design...

Pete_E: Congratulations! And its close to home for you as well. Get some scouting in and take your camera - as you probably know, that area 301 is some of the most beautiful country in the world. I especially like the country between Sphinx Mountain and Shedhorn Mountain. I wish I could offer you some insights to where the Bighorn Rams are but I have Hunted that area only for Deer, Elk and Spring Bear. Best of luck to you on the Hunt. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

Could be wrong but I feel that 90% of the sheep in the unit will be found within a mile or so of the river from the Conoco to the meadows to the north of Deer Creek.
I have a copy of the FWP arial flight from this spring for sheep (and for elk) if you like Pete send me a pm with your email addy and I'll forward it to you.

(side note, tween Sphinx and Shedhorn is beautiful country but I'd not spend time in it looking for sheep if it were my tag)

Was through the canyon wednesday. House rock is still a few feet from being under and there was at least one sheep down on the road that hasn't been hit yet. Congrats on the sheep tag Pete E
