A recent two week wandering in the midle of nowhere Kyrgyzstan, central Asia within the massive and beautiful Tian Shan (Celestial) mountain range. A bone jarring 10 hour ride to the end of the earth. Typical Kyrgyz homestead. Portable! Mode of transportation Easy, old boy, don't trip now! Fly camp. Past hunters Plenty of four legged hunters in the area too. After Richard's Marco Polo success, we enjoyed Argali oysters! Damned cholla follows me around the globe!! Past 13K ft, it was COLD Setting up Helluva place, these mountains | ||

Fabulous!!! DRSS Life Member SCI Life Member NRA Life Member WSF Rhyme of the Sheep Hunter May fordings never be too deep, And alders not too thick; May rock slides never be too steep And ridges not too slick. And may your bullets shoot as swell As Fred Bear's arrow's flew; And may your nose work just as well As Jack O'Connor's too. May winds be never at your tail When stalking down the steep; May bears be never on your trail When packing out your sheep. May the hundred pounds upon you Not make you break or trip; And may the plane in which you flew Await you at the strip. -Seth Peterson | |||

Finally, really been looking forward to this one and realizing you been runnin hard the last several weeks. I had faith in you, but as the days went by, I was sure hoping you didn't get in an early vodka drinking contest. Congratulations, looks like you really got it done. Great photos and thank you for sharing them with us. "If you are not working to protect hunting, then you are working to destroy it". Fred Bear | |||

Scottyboy! You did well my friend! I'm happy for your great success and fabulous experience. The photos are excellent as well. Were the oysters as good as they are from N.A. wild sheep? I didn't eat any while in the Gobi or the Pamirs. Darn it! Zeke | |||

Scotty, congrats! Glad to see your post. Those petroglyphs are not old, though. However, there are many places with old ones with similar looking ibex but no hunter. | |||

Scott, Welcome home from your great adventure. That first fly camp photo cracked me up. Thought that them boys parked it there in the stream, maybe because it was in easy reach of water. Really happy for you. Stunning country, nice billies. When you are ready for marco, let's get it done. Thanks for the post "You only gotta do one thing well to make it in this world" - J Joplin | |||

Well done Scotty... looking forward to your hunt report! On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Thank you for the pix, Scottyboy. I was furtunate to have hunted the Tien Shan a few years ago. It was a mind boggling experience. I'm not sure which spelling is preferred-Tien or Tian. | |||

This is awesome. I can't get over how similar the rock drawings are to our Anastazi. "There are worse memorials to a life well-lived than a pair of elephant tusks." Robert Ruark | |||
