Got lucky this year and drew a mountain lion permit in Utah this year. Had a great hunt. First time hunting with dogs and it was a blast. those dogs are awesome. hunting at 6500+ feet in elevation and it was 5 degrees outside. then a 1 mile hike and 2' of snow on the open hillsides kicked my butt. Hope to do it again someday.

Finally found a nice track after a lot of looking.

sending you dogs out.

About half way there. This mountains are no joke.

Getting closer after we got to the tree and it jumped and ran another 400 yards before treeing again.

Looks like a blast! Did you hire a guide or know someone with dogs?

9,000+ feet elevation....those dogs are some of the ultimate atheletes. can not imagine running in a couple feet of snow at that altitude for a couple miles. congrats to you on the cat---big props to the dogs. I miss my hounds....

Them dogs (and cats) sure can cover some country quick! It takes a lot of work to try to stay close or even find them!! I’ve been under a few treed cats and never was it easy !!! It’s unfortunate that lifestyle has been voted out here in WA. I knew a few hounds men and they were hardcore, dedicated, and some of the most knowledgeable of the land you could find.
Congratulations on the cat!
