They don't call it Big Horn Sheep Canyon for Nuthin'
We were driving along enjoying the view and just happened to notice movement in the rock. We've been dying to see Big Horned Sheep since we've lived here. Finally, in their natural environment. We stopped off at a launch site for kayak's and fly fishing, there was a local woman there too who said, "I live here and it's rare that we see them", so, we consider ourselves very fortunate.
A friend of Billy's from work gave us some passes to Monarch, so we loaded up the Sx4 and headed to the slopes for the last day of the season. We discovered that it is advantageous to go in fall or spring rather than full-on winter, since the sun is out, the temperature is nice, and one is less likely to get sick. It was really fun, Billy's skills have excelled, mine are about the same. Billy went down about 5 times without falling. I could only go down 3 times and fell every time. I'm on a carb restricted diet so my legs locked up every time. Next time I'll be sure to eat for the occasion. It was still fun. People were next to naked due to the temp. Every one had sunburn. I took pictures while Billy kept going back up the mountain.
