Flying in this year to try stones for the first time, leaning towards the first 2 weeks of September or opener.. to be determined.
Fingers crossed for a white sheep LEH this year.
X2 on hoping for white sheep, will be taking 2-3 weeks this year for a hunt or two.
Going in with horses. Third sheep hunt - first one using horses. Will be a new area. Lots of preparation and little time, but I better do it before I get too old. :smile:
Last year was my first official sheep hunting year. Going to give my first crack at stones this year. Then if that doesn’t plan out then chase bighorns til the very end. I can see how some call this a “sickness”
Hiking off the highway. Heading in for the opener 10-14 days. Started training with a heavy pack before Christmas trying to lose some weight and get further back.
Hike in for bighorns if my pal comes in time fingers crossed!
I’m going to be hiking in!!
fly in here.... in sept. Training already started
Flying in Sept - 13th to the 22nd, for Stones, with a non-resident buddy who will be coming along and carrying a goat tag. Short flight but should be a fun area
Will set aside a week in Oct as well for bighorns.
Hiking in off the highway for bighorns if My pal comes in time fingers crossed!!
Headed out this year & it's about time. I haven't been able to go for the last 4 years.
Where I go depends on LEH results.
awesome!! Do you have your own ponies or are you using a guide/ packer ?Quote:

have all of august off hoping for a white sheep draw as well, if not probably flying in for stones again somewhere in region 6 or walk in in region 7B
or ya know winning the desert sheep raffle on WSSBC would be ok with me as well
Two trips planned for stones this year. One family hike in with the wife and kids and a second with my brother and our oldest kids which will be bike and hike.
Yep, taking my plane in, then hiking
Tossing the idea around. If we go, it will be back to the Kechika with the jet rigs.
Heard that damn few rams were taken up there last season due to the lack of clients for the guides.
Did hear of one absolute Hammer of a Stone that was though.
Still thinking it over... for now...
Nog - Considering yet another sheep hunt at 62 years young...

I'll be spending the late winter, spring, and early summer working with them to iron out a wrinkle or two. Training is something that never ends, but is something that is actually part of the fun.Quote:

I hope to still be climbing mountains at your age. Guys like you inspire me to stay active. Hopefully you have some kids/nephews to help pack some of the load for you.Quote:

At 60+ myself, counting on couple buddies, Rambo greenhorns to help me out helping them out.
Would be nice to help them take their 1st Rams. Looking like Richards Bat, or way further, Gatho Chiska.
Can't loose it's all just wonderful to take in Stones Country.
Holding off on the Moose and Elk with these guys should be fun.
Im it down a bit lol.
Two feet and a heartbeat for this guy. Didn't see anything legal last year, so this August I will be heading farther back.
Why Thank You Kind Sir!! ;-)Quote:
