Manson Sheep hunt 2015

[grade-creek-rd]

Bob you beat me to it (posting picts)...all I gotta say us "mucho mass"! This ram is broomed back but carries the mass all the way to the end...much better than lamb tips on a full curl. This guy was old enough to be over a full curl!

Great job guys...not sure uf it will fit in the cooler/fridge in Manson!

Oh, and Lakeview Drive In is open until Nov. 22nd...a bucket of french fries (with their famous Macks seasoning salt) is a great way to celebrate!

The bios are the ones who do the pinning and I doubt that Dave V. or Jon G. will be willing to come in on a weekend to do it. That being said there is a lot of things to do in this area and if you like to look at sheep the Swakane herd could be close to Highway 97A. Congratulations on a very nice ram, good job.

Congrats on an old monarch!  That is one heck of a trophy.
Looks like we should have hiked a few steeper hills during elk season though, must have been some tough hiking up that hill.

The last pic. Looks like you could roll him to the boat! Congrats!

Yep, 2500 ' gain 7 tenths of a mile hike.

Thanks everyone. A few more (or any at all) stair stepping relays would have helped.

He's definitely got some character, I added a little with a lead projectile to the tip of one side... glancing blow.....

He is all I could have hoped for.

Well done on a beautiful trophy!

Beautiful Ram!

That looks like a very old ram. Very heavy! Congrats!

He looks to be nine to the broomed ends.

We are definitely not bored. Borrowed a shotgun and got one quail for nine shots... dang semi-autos don't pump when you want them too, also a little short for me.  Hope to get at least one chukar tomorrow as well as a second limit of trout (one limit today while cruising for birds).

Anyone want to apply for this tag next year, give me a call.  Have boat, will travel.

Don't even try this hunt without a boat, or access to one. Unless your an Olympic athlete, due to the sheep being on the lake side versus toward the land side road access.

I would buy boat if I could draw a WA sheep tag.  Would probably still be cheaper than the average sheep tag in Canada.  And better chance of getting a good ram too!
