Orientation is the 16th. Ya Rick is still around. http://rickyoungoutdoors.com/huntingdvdmovies/ This new sheep video is pretty good. 28 hunts from around the world including a John Day River hunt. They pay the trespass fee though and don't float.

Thanks for the heads up on the biologist! If he is not at the orientation I will be giving him a call.

Holly cow raft rentals are expensive!! 3 rafts for 2 weeks Is $4,300.00. That trespass fee is sounding better (???) Anyone have 3 rafts for sale?

If you were in Utah I could probably get you hooked up with much cheaper rafts. Let me check with my dad and see if he knows any secrets. He used to be a white water rafting guide and still owns his own and goes on trips yearly. How far would you be willing to travel to pick up rafts?

Ya no doubt. I think I found someone willing to rent much cheaper. Thanks sneekeepete for the offer. I would like to find something a little closer. Still have lots of time but I don't want to wait till the last minute.

It was good. The Bio was good to talk to and a couple previous tag holders. I think I came out even more confused on how to field judge after there demo. ](*,) Oh well, the videos should be here by Tuesday.

Sounds like your cousin has a good crew of guys. He tells me that they are going to shoot the biggest sheep on the mountain. I hope they do!! I will gladly take #2.

Should be fun.
