Ram Cave

...where this guy hides his harem.  We have come upon these big horn sheep in this area before.  We've often wondered where they sleep and/or "take a break."  Again, I get so excited when I see them only about 10% of my photos are worth a dram.

Bighorn sheep are named for the large, curved horns borne by the rams (males). Ewes (females) also have horns, but they are shorter with less curvature. ... Males typically weigh 58–143 kg (128–315 lb), are 90–105 cm (35–41 in) tall at the shoulder, and 1.6–1.85 m (63–73 in) long from the nose to the tail. --Wiki


Extra: one of several ewes on the cliffs leading to the cave. Their sense of balance is to be envied.
