I took video of the Dall sheep through my spotting scope. The broomed ram is in the video twice, facing left first and then right. From my little Dall sheep knowledge, he seemed to be the biggest ram in the group. Enjoy the video and pictures. -janis
Hiking up to Primrose Ridge. In Denali National Park there are not a lot of marked trails and they actually encourage off trail hiking to get the wilderness experience. |
A young ram getting up from his bed with a view. |
This young ram was bedded a couple hundred yards from us and fed to within 80 yards. I think the sheep in the park know that the pressure is off! |
Our sheep viewing/picnic area for the afternoon. |
"Could you please drop the tripod legs just a little lower?" |
Jennifer took lots of breaks to check out the flowers of the Alaskan alpine environment. |
Even being white sheep, they can be difficult to spot when bedded on the light colored rocks. |
A closer view of the sheep's bedding area. |
The storm that ushered us off the ridge. |
The biggest ram we saw that day. |
Caribou bulls. |
We finished the day teaching Aina how to throw rocks in the river. She still prefers to hang on to them. |
