Lived a couple of years in the 60s at Coutts. Pix of the Sweetgrass Hills bring back memories.

It's not always the end result that produces the most pleasure but sometimes it's the journey along the way. Looks incredible.

Excellent Alpineguy.
First thought that popped into my mind was a couple Good'ol'boys hanging out the windows of a '60s pick-up truck with rifles in their hands doing 50mp/h across the grassland. Glad I was wrong!

Congratulations on the success. I don't know or care if those are big or not. That kind of reminds me of my old bamboo fly rod. I would rather just enjoy pitching dries with it on a lazy summer evening catching nothing than limit out on big fat trout on spinners. I like seeing others that "get" the experience.

So serene
That looks incredible. I'd love to have the opportunity some day to hint like that. I've hunted horseback before but never with a wagon. Good job guys, great pics. Thanks for sharing

A hunt like this is where the term " Happy Trails " comes from.
Congrats on the speed goats. Thank you for sharing.
Brings back good memories. When I was young we took a couple chuckwagons and several outriders for a 300 mile/4 week journey. The best of times.
Be careful what you post. You could start something.
