Dall Sheep Cape
My Taxiderist call me and gave me some bad news.. The cape he received from the Yukon was a mess and I need another one.. If anyone has one that would make a good Shoulder Mount please PM me..
Thanks..

Might be worth naming the outfitter for the sake of others. I couldn't imagine paying guided rates and having the problem you experienced.

Have you let the outfitter know?

Cheers
Jim

It's not the Outfitter it's his Guide.. Even Outfitters make a bad choices now and then.. The Outftter will be told..
All that's important at this time is finding a Cape.. Somewhere...

My point is that perhaps the Outfitter can find you a cape. You may want to put a "needed" ad on Alaska List. I would then suggest you ask the outfitter to pay for it if you find one.

Akrange,

you paid the outfitter not the guide.

inform the outfitter ask him if there is a way he can help you and of course pays for the cape.

i will try to ask around but the cost may hurts you.

You are right on all accounts.. Even if the outfitter could find one {which is a needle in the hay stack } I'd still have all the charges I just paid to get it here..
Thats why I'm trying here ..Looking for a Cape
from AK or one thats in the Lower 48...

Thanks for looking for me All...
