I spend a lot of time in Chelan and man is it cool to see what kind of critters are roaming around there up on the Butte. Well done.

Beautiful ram congrats! A very fitting nick name indeed. Thank you for taking the time to share the story and awesome photos with us. You'll be riding that high for some time. Love to hear what the tape stretches when you score him.

Beautiful animal!! Got to know, how did he taste!?
Thanks!

The meat is spectacular. I'd put this up against any meat. Absolutely delicious.

My wife was pleasantly surprised when we started eating mine.  :)

Congratulations!

How old was he, maybe 11 by my unpracticed eye?
