X2 for Jonas. He is a machine when it comes to sheep hunting.

Yup, agree, Jonas is the guy, he grew up there, knows the area well and climbs like a crazy man.

X3 for Jonas!!

But... with a little bit of knowledge and a lot of persistence you can kill a nice ram without a guide!!

True enough eh TK!

Just be sure to keep some friends on speed dial to help pack out your ram and gear.

Why not just post an ad on here asking for anyone with experience to come along with you for the hunt, instead of paying for someone.
