azbighornhunter Report post Posted May 8, 2012 I've checked the maps and it looks like the elevations will range from 9,000 feet to 12,000 feet. I've been keeping my horses and mules legged up but I guess I'll have to haul them up to Flagstaff this summer and ride around on the San Fransisco Peaks to see how they do at altitude. I've spoken to some friends in Wyoming who have told me that non-residents have to be accompanied by a licensed guide if hunting in a wilderness area. Thankfully, I've spoken to several of them at the Wild Sheep Foundation "Sheep Show" in Reno over the last several years. Next step is working out logistics with one of them. So much to be done, so little time! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
