Nine Mile/Range Creek Questions

[TBoneCollector]

Have any of you hunted Big Horn Sheep on this unit? My father in law drew a tag and we have been out spotting a few times. We have also talked to the Fish & Game officer over that area and picked his brain quite a bit. Were is the best place to camp? We were thinking Turtle Canyon and hunting down south from there? Also we were thinking 129 that follows the Price River up those canyons would be a great spot? If you have any info from past hunts to give us some options that would be awesome.

I have chased sheep off of the road that follows the price river. 7 or 8 ewes, no rams...but I am sure they are aound if the ewes are.

I also know a guy that killed a pretty nice sheep by floating Desolation Canyon. It would take quite a while to float that...flows are pretty low through the fall.

Good luck.

Thanks for your input. We pretty much have an idea where we are gonna hunt, but aren't quite sure where the best place would be to camp. Hope all goes well and we bring home a respectable ram.
