In all the years you hunted it previously had you experienced smoke like that or was it a one time deal? Glassing anything but whichever drainage we were in at the time was out of the question. Couldn’t see good even that close.

I’ve never seen it smoky like that.
I have in the summer, but not during season.

I didn't shoot it but I know who did. Not my picture to put up in this thread. If I shot a ram it would be one big party!!!!!!!!

Love the pic of the tent with the light on!!!!!! I was also surprised at how warm it was this year. Actually way to warm. One day I didn't even put a jacket on in the morning. That's crazy. Last year I was plenty cold and wet and was always looking forward to a fire. Didn't even start a fire this year.

One of the few perks of it being fire season instead of winter season.

Alright quit holding out guys.......

Maybe I'm just a little sour because I wasn't there......

The bull won’t kill itself... but you should probably have gone into the ‘tooth’s based on the number of rams killed!

Ha! The grizzlies don't even have to rip open a tent to eat!

Wow! Not a peep posted to the thread in the past 3+ weeks and the season is still open in a couple units--what's happening guys? I need my MT Unlimited fix!

Is there no further information on the six rams taken in 501? What's happening with weather in 502, and etc.?

Age, health issues and an overwhelming plate of tasks* on my table right now have left me skeptical that I'll ever return to the unlimited units for a swan song. Therefore, I write to prompt new inputs that might feed my need for vicarious adventure.


* If I can make more progress on those issues than I have managed over the past couple years, I will be within 320 miles of unlimited units 501 and 502, instead of 1000 miles. I now own a bit over half of Section 17, Township 11 North, Range 15 West in Granite County. It is mostly a steep-ass hill, my ability to climb the 1000+ feet of which somewhat encouraged me for prospects of getting back into shape, though my balance at the start of the climb was less than reliable. There are also river-bottom benches (with Whitetailed deer) alongside the Clark Fork River, which is the northern boundary of the property, and a middling marsh, an old stranded meander of the river.

Would any of the MT Unlimited contributors be interested in a pre-season get-together there next July? There are certainly a number of you whom I would like to meet in person. Additionally, I'd like to offer hunting opportunities on the property to wounded veterans--contact me via "conversations" functions if interested.

I saw one pic of a ram out of 501 that was a dandy, but thats not my ram picture to share. As far as 502 goes, the snow report from fisher creek by Cooke City is at 40". I imagine the rams may be mobile in the unit but it would be pretty sketchy if you ask me. Avalanche danger is pretty high.

Hey Shines, I would be very interested in meeting you and maybe doing a little recon trip. I'll be retiring on May 31st and should have a little free time after that..... I can still chase chukars and hunt deer in the Snake River breaks, so I'm hoping I can at least make it into one of the Unlimited units at least once to have my behind kicked. Secretly, I hope I haven't waited too long to start, though I'll be 63 next season. Unfortunately, I know my time is limited. Keep me in mind.

I saw where 303 is pending closure on the 26th.

Wow, 2 must have been taken since I called on Thursday. The cold front must have moved a few more into the unit.

That sounds good Dave. Moreover, I sure wouldn't mind some tips on locating Chukar partridge in WA. I haven't hunted upland birds in ages, but I used to do reasonably well for a dogless solo hunter on pheasants, quail and Huns--I just never managed to locate chukar when actually trying. More than once, I've seen them perched on roadside rocks when driving I-90 near Vantage--Artemis has a cruel sense of humor at times.

Yea I know I checked Friday and saw nothing and again today and it’s pending closure. Seems to happen fast down in 303 when the migration starts.

There was a 186" killed in 303 on Saturday.

I've been dogless since 2015 and it shows in the bulkiness, or actually, lack of bulk in my vest game pocket at the end of most days. I have been able to find and hit a few unlucky individuals occasionally. I'm not sure about how great my tips might be, but I'm usually solo for these too, so if you're willing, I could possibly show you a few just south of Vantage in the Saddles.



Getting back to the main topic....I want to see (drool over) a picture of that 186" 303 ram!!

Please, don't ruin a good thread by bringing a pissing match in here. Take it to the streets. I think he lives somewhere in Montana. Good luck
