.....or the rams could be back at the trailhead, raiding your beer cooler, and getting pets from the hippie chicks.

Rams.....I love your glass half full approach. I'm thinking it should be singular not plural. That has been my experience.

When's everyone thinking about going in. I'm thinking the 10th here but watching the weather as well. Never know what she can cook up around mid September. Good luck to everyone making the journey and be safe.

Thanks amigo I'm just excited to be back up there this year. We'll see what happens there's plenty of deserving folks out there. Hope to see one that'd be nice
Headed in on the 8th, good luck to all you guys!
Just packed the bag and looks like coming in around 55-57lbs. Planning on being in till the 19th.
That weather has/is way to stable leading up to the opener. I’m sure Mother Nature will shake things up.
Can’t wait and hopefully cross paths with some of you.

I too will be heading in this year, albeit for the first time. Planning on heading in on the 11th for 8 days. Good luck to everyone, my neck is already sore from looking up at the learning curve ahead of me.

Remember to check and report.....
I talked to the biologist again today and he said they will be strictly enforcing the 48 hour rule this year. Might make some solo hunters question how deep they want to go. Or just know in advance you’re gonna have to run out with the head then go back in for whatever you couldn’t carry out within the deadline.

The 48 hour deadline was never a consideration for me when thinking about going deeper. Just the thought of trying to get it all out was enough form me not to head into certain places. I could see scenarios where it would take the better part of a week to get everything out. 2 days out. 1 day to check your animal in. day or two back in and then another trip back out. It could be quite the ordeal. Two people could make a big difference.
I should also mention that there is a heavy pine cone crop with the whitebark pines in the GYE this year, which means the grizzlies will be even thicker than normal as that is their primary food source during the fall on cone years. Stay safe out there folks!

2022 can’t come soon enough, I was going to start the task of the UL this year but then decided to hold off until after my sheep hunt next year so 2022 is when I will go in and hopefully if everything goes to plan next year, maybe be a half slammer coming out of the UL in 2022

Not one this year just taking the time to prepare for my dall in 22 as well spend time with the family with the understanding that I will be more limited next year to spend the time outside of preparing for my dall sheep hunt. Then roll that training/equipment/experience right into the UL to hopefully be a half slammer coming out of the UL one day.

I'm finally going up the Boulder River for a few days of scouting and glassing. I had big plans for this year's hunt but every time I even started to get in shape this summer old injuries from the past came back to haunt me and lay me low one after another. For the first time, I have some real doubts about being able to get to where I want to go.
Meanwhile, my partner geetar, who's a couple decades younger to boot, has been running marathons and competing in Iron Man competitions and rassling bears and I don't know what all. I might have to tie a rope to his pack and have him tow me up the mountain come season.
Assuming the hike don't kill me outright, I am looking forward to sitting and glassing a couple of mountains from high points across the drainage and trying to learn their secrets. You know the kind of mountains I mean...the ones when you're actually on them you can't see anything of them.
