There were many signs along the way about staying on the road so you don't stress the sheep. These Bighorn Sheep look terribly stressed, sitting right on the road, don't they? All these years, this is the first time I'd ever seen Bighorns in the flesh. It was very cool.

Ishawooa Mesa rears above the old Siggins' Triangle X [Dude] Ranch. It became the Double Diamond X for a while, but at the time this was taken, it didn't look to be in business.
