I'd wait until we see the results of this season as preliminary numbers look dismal. IMO, that Alaska's Dall Sheep are in decline and it may be quite severe.
I hope you're wrong, but I know many areas are in bad shape. Especially 19c and the TMA.

Second DCUA Walkin Ram for me. 38.5" 11 yo. 71 yds with the Freedom Arms 454 Casull. I thank the Lord and my partner Roy. Over the years I'd been hoping to get a Ram in this class and also get a shot at one with my pistol. Both happened on this trip. Also we got him 1 day before my 61st Birthday so he's a Birthday Ram as well. I'd never hunted sheep this late, first BDay in the Sheep Mtns. This is number 4 for me out of 10 I've packed and ate. Other 3 I did euro mounts and sold the capes, this one gets mounted. For me this is the pinnacle, the Apogee of my Sheep Hunting. I am done chasing rams for myself. If one of my buddies draws and needs a partner and if my body holds out I'll enter the Sheep Mountains again. But for me, it's been an awesome ride and I'm more than satisfied. Hmm, I got my first and last ram on DCUA Walkin Hunts. There's much more to the story for a future thread.

Go Get Em Boys!!

I had to push it back, my hunting partner had to bail due to someone he works with being exposed to Covid, I am headed out on the 9th and back on the 21st.
How'd it go?

Already scheming on 2022.

Great thread and congrats to everyone who got out afield!
