The tooths will be a mystery that's for sure.

Wonder what the Stillwater is like about Roosevelt Lake?

Switchback up East before Granite?

Is the famous log jam between Island and Mystic?

How are people gonna get up 502? Actually have to walk? Could be one of the best things ever for 502.

It'll be interesting.
Ooooh... if that logjam goes bye-bye it'll really be an interesting year up in 501.

As for 502, well... I selfishly hope the roads stay closed this year.
 
I believe the temporary road to Stillwater mine is a private road for the mine’s use. I am not positive on that, but I believe that is the situation. that they paid for the road, and likely paid the underlying landowner for the access. I do not think it is open to the public, therefore the West Stillwater trailhead would not be accessible.
Nailed it. Mine traffic only for the temp road.

Exactly, even working for power company it's a struggle to get through there just to access our facilities serving the mine.
They also posted that access update on the FS website on tuesday:
 
Anyone want to start a sheep themed book club? I’ve been trying to get my hands on “Sheep and Sheep Hunting” by Jack O’ Connor but it’s tough to come by and expensive.

Also- has anyone here read “Rammin’ Around” by Jim Ford? If so, what are your thoughts on the story of his unlimited sheep?
 
I’ve always wanted to read O’Connors sheep book too but that price tag keeps me at bay. Have not heard of Mr Ford’s book. I’ll keep an eye out for it. Edit: I just googled Jim Ford’s book and it’s going for the same price range.
$175 isn’t that bad for a book.

Unfortunately I’m borrowing a fragile copy of the Ford book so I can’t be lending it out. The unlimited section is fairly brief. If you’re interested in reading it, send me a pm and I can text you pictures of the pages.

I have an original and a reprint. I don’t recall either being over $30. I’d just keep an eye out. I don’t think any sheep hunting book is going to help for the unlimiteds.

I need a good sheep hunting book to take with me in three weeks when I head up north to hunt dall sheep, any suggestions or anyone willing to lend a good sheep hunting book. What’s better then reading a sheep hunting book then while your on one.

Get this one. 10 lifetimes of stories from the old days in this one. Bought my copy from Garry at a sheep show, then donated it to a fundraiser after reading it. Somedays wish I kept it. Big and heavy book with a million pictures in it, so not recommended for a backpack hunt. Garry's outfit was one of the first I corresponded with back in the 90's when I first started looking at doing a sheep hunt. Thought stone sheep hunts were expensive back then, now look at them!

Looks like a great book.

Although at 5 pounds, you’ll probably want to cut off your toothbrush handle to offset the weight.

@BradA - not strictly sheep hunting but The Versatile Trophy Hunter by Bull Butler is a great one with a lot of stories, including his five unlimited sheep. And lots of pictures for us who don’t read good. 😀
