Dick Thompson19 days! You earned that beautiful ram. Central Idaho isn't for the faint of heart, it can be very intimidating for those who haven't ventured very far from the highway.

Outdoor WriterSuper ram! Congrats.
I wanted to stop & rest just looking at your photos of that country. If I was actually there, I'd probably be close to death.

BrantI did an elk hunt with them last year, and thought that territory was rugged, but those pictures take it to another level. Congrats on a great ram and a heck of an adventure.

JabaliHunterVery nice! Congratulations! Any idea how old that ram is?

Ryan CampbellWow, well done sir. The pictures are stunning. You earned that Ram the old fashioned way. Good job hunter.
The Hunt goes on forever, the season never ends.
I didn't learn this by reading about it or seeing it on TV. I learned it by doing it.

mmaggiWhat a dream come true. Great ram.

DPSThanks to all for the comments. It wasn't the "big" ram we were hoping for but it certainly looked good on day 19. It really was wicked awesome country and an adventure that I will never forget.
JabaliHunter - We believe the ram was 7 years old.
