I make an annual trip every year to Montana and take pictures of sheep in the rut. If anyone is interested, I think I don't have my brother and dad coming with me this year. I requires hiking of course, but is fun. You will see 5+ sheep over 180" almost guaranteed. Let me know if your interested, maybe we can hook up.

Um, I usually go 3rd week of November to mid December. It's a no hunting area where the rams are. I am going to take widescreen video and make a dvd this year. I have plenty of still pictures. I would be driving on I90 and it's about a 2.5 hour drive from Spokane. We will probably want 2 days plus the driving so leave on Friday and come back late Sunday. Send me a private message or email and we'll try and work something out in our schedules or talk it over.
P.S. - We'll probably get within 40 yards of a 200" ram... :) But since I'm a lawyer, I can't make any guarantees. Also, we'll see Boone and Crocket sized Mule Deer. Bring your camera.

No, just on the west a short distance north from Missoula. I'm going there probably early December to better coincide with the sheep rut. I'll probably miss out on the mule deer rut by a few weeks. I'll just make a dvd and send out some copies for people who want to see how it turns out.

| My brother and I were hunting elk north of Gardiner, and saw three sheep, just like the photo. Two battering each other, the other almost seemed to egg one of the smaller sparring rams on, as if saying "Go getem little fella". We didnt have any luck with the elk, so went for a drive, and pulled right off the road to watch. An absolute bone chilling site. My favorite hunting memory ever. Made sheep my favorite animal to TRY to hunt, havent succeeded yet. You all are surely aware the tags are difficult (understatement?) to draw. Beautiful Photos, man. :thumbsup1: |
