Damn it, why do they come up as links?
Looks like everyone has been doing well on the site this season. Congrats on everyone's successes. I have been looking through the last three months of posts but there's only so much time in a day!

who cares if they come up as links. pictures like that are awesome anywhere you can see them. sure are some nice trophies your hunters harvested. guiding is alot of work, but well worth it.

Real jobs are for suckers and married people!
One of the highlights of the year was that the age average for the whole camp on sheep was 11.3 years, which is pretty incredible.

And who won the age buckle this year?? Is Tav still doing that?

A new guy by the name of Leif won. His average was 12 years for 3 rams. This year if you shot a 10 year old ram or less you pretty much were outta the race!

bruin:
Look up your pic in Photobucket, then when you mouse-over it, use the LAST code..the one that starts and ends with IMG. Right-click and choose COPY.
Then PASTE it in your mssg.
It will post them inline.
Nice photos, and congrats on a great season.
Wicked photos of some awesome rams there!

Whats the story with the last ram pic....did you guys kill him, or does he live for another year?

My pleasure, bruin, thx for sharing them.
I'm guessing the last live pic and the last "Happy Hunter" pic are the same ram....might I be correct?
What did it score?

WWow congrats on a great season. Looks like the caribou are from the Cranswick area....(caribou camp west). Great area in the arctic red.

I didn't get to visit with him much after the season. He was pretty successful throughout though.

No surprises there. He's been pretty successfull on the Yukon side of the border @ Widrig for years. I worked with him a bit last fall. Good guy.
