Pecos wilderness (New Mexico) on the skyline trail-things you run into when not hunting. (http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll259/truxturning/pecos/SkylineTrail2007044.jpg) (http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll259/truxturning/pecos/SkylineTrail2007037.jpg)

It is awesome to see sheep in the wild, I saw these Rocky Mountains above my house about 40 Miles south of Salt Lake City, they are transplants but are doing well here in Utah.

Trux that far left in your second pic is a dandy. Wild sheep are awesome animals. One day i may even draw a tag for one.

I have 10 points for Desert Sheep here in Utah. I am still another 5 years away from drawing a tag, that works for me because I am a poor college student!

I would say there are a couple of shooters in the group. (http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll259/truxturning/pecos/SkylineTrail2007041.jpg)

Once they knew I was there (winded or saw me) they headed off the trail, onto the cliffs and out of sight.
