Sighted on Mt Evans a couple weeks ago, the older one has a broken horn, while the lamb is just starting to get his horns. I did admire the way he pranced along the cliff's edge.

Stan, you could've gone prancing along the cliff's edge too and gotten a good head-on shot, couldn't you?? :-)

Sweet shots Stan. :D When it comes to Mountain climbing, these guys are some of the BEST. You must be a bit of a Hiker yourself to have gotten this close to them. ;)
Dont believe I've ever seen one with a broken horn before though. :shock:

Thanks, Bruce. Actually, I drove to the top of the mountain and stood on the road to get these. Wish I could say I hiked miles and climbed the mountain, but the stress fracture I was nursing wouldn't allow it. LOL First broken horn I've seen, too.

Nice shots on both! #2 edges out a bit - that is a great shot.


You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

Stan, prancing with your cast on the edge could get you a matching one for the other leg.:lol:

Thanks, guys.

Mark, with or without my "boot", no way do I prance along the cliff's edge.

Thanks, Paul.

Sorry but I deleted the first one while doing some clean-up at the gallery.
