CouesWhitetail Report post Posted September 7, 2007 video didn't work for me. But great pics Jason, love it. Reminds me of my trip to Alaska last year (not a hunting trip, but saw some of the great scenery and sheep and bears). Amanda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JasCald02 Report post Posted September 7, 2007 So that is what dream hunts look like? Amazing pictures man! What is the elevation up there? What do you mean about the stone hunts getting out of control, are they stupid expensive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertsheep Report post Posted September 7, 2007 Some of the bigger stone sheep outfitters are getting around $35,000.00. The elevation is what really surprised me up there. We camped at 4500 ft. Here is some video I took with my digital camera. Sorry it's not that great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coues 'n' Sheep Report post Posted September 7, 2007 Yup it is rough...... The mountains I was hunting were very jagged, because it was better for bow hunting (which didn't work out for me ). I hunted with Nahanni Butte Outfitters(Lancasters), a great bunch of people to be around....they treat you like family. The mountains there destroyed a brand new pair of boots in one trip... and I took one pretty bad fall. If you were side hilling you could almost always rest your hand on the mountain for support and you knew that one slip meant a 100 plus yard tumble, as you followed 4"-6" wide sheep trails. Walking the tops was the best.... but, you can't skyline yourself very often when sheep hunting. I loved it! You have some Great pics and memories, Jason! I wish that I had used my camera more on my hunt..... I do have some pics that I will share sometime. Keep me in mind when you start your reaserch for booking the stone sheep.... don't know if I'll be ready, but it would be nice to get some more info. I would look into a horse back hunt for sure..... there will still be plenty of climbing to do anyhow. CnS Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

desertsheep Report post Posted September 8, 2007 I know you guys are probaly getting bored of this topic but here are a few more picture's. The first one is the helicopter they flew us in on and the second is the one they picked me up in and flew me back to base camp. When the hunt was over they sent in a float plane to pick us up. That was awesome to watch him land & take off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
