Great job! ... that "bike ramp" I believe is actually built for kites or hang gliders as a take off ramp.

I was trying to figure out what it was for. I was wondering if maybe back county skier or snowboarder too but your idea makes the most sense. You'd have to have a giant set to jump a bike off that damn thing! Just look at the hill with the pic of the goat piled up below it.

Here’s a few more photos. Unfortunately since we found him 12 hours after I shot the meat and cape were spoiled. I was heartbroken. We caped him up for a shoulder mount and I kept the rear cape for a blanket. I took the meat to an old neighbor who is a guide and he tried to salvage some but he said it was way too smelly. The taxidermist said the same thing about the cape. The skin was turning green and the hair was falling out so he said we could look for another cape and still get it shoulder mounted. He told me he’s a really nice billy. 10 inches for sure. I will get him scored after 60 days.

So fellow roksliders if you could please keep your eyes out for a mature billy cape I would really appreciate it. I am located in Utah.

Thanks for sharing. It sucks that you had spoilage, but I'm glad you got to recover him.

Congrats on a great hunt!
Sorry to hear about the meat/cape. Hope you can find another for the mount.
