Cant wait to hear about it,hopefully they got it all on camera. I think a double on a backpack hunt would be quite a load to pack out for the two of them no matter how many wheaties were eatin.

Tired dirty and smelly, but what a great opener!

Sandi has done the penance for this ram and she did the final penance as well and packed the skull and cape out as well. Her pack was pushing 70 pounds on the scale here today. Tough gal...

Here is a ram taken in the Yukon 2 weeks ago. Brian managed to get it done. Over 100k on foot and on the 9th day he layed one down. It was 35k just to the boat on the way out.. You know you are alive when you are walking that much....
