10 sheds, 5.5 miles, sore feet and tired hounds

The last few times id been out I nearly froze to death. I finnaly took my hunting partner "Little Rag Horn" advise and dressed for the weather. Warmer clothes, double socks, ect.. Well about an hour into the hike I was dying from heat exhaustion! Thats when I've decided NEVER listen to a man again :)
I toughed it out and found 1 brown shed and 9 year old ones. Hey a shed is a shed not matter how old! I was really supprized that I never found the 4 pt with the kicker last year. I must have walked right by it.Too bad I hadnt found it earlier. So now im on the quest to find the other side.
I always take my hounds with me, they love to go.. Still trying to teach "Duke" the 10 month old great dane to mind. She comes in handy when your going up hill. The 130 pound girl will drag you up the hill.. Its nice!
Even got my first sun burn of the year
Heres a few picts..

I went back up after work today to find the other side. I used my gps and found the spot I found the 5 pt. My instinct told me go straight up the hill.. about 25 yard up I couldnt help but smile. I thought I found the other side.. Nope just another 4 pt So now I have 2 sheds to find.. My worries is that they are on the other side of the hill in 4 feet of snow and thick sage brush.. Until then I will be looking hard. Once in a while my dogs will bring one back but mostly they keep the lions away!
I love that country, lots of cedars, sand stone rock formations and its steep.
Only 8 more hours of work then im on the hill again.

The swirly is called disguising where she is at. I dont blame her. I am protective of my spots too. :thumb

LOL...dang! And I was going to fly down to Utah and steal your sheds! I guess I have to come up with a new game plan now.

J/K...I understand completely. I am one of the few folks on here that are not from Utah or a nieghboring state so I am sure I am the least of your worries. lol

Digger- I think your winning our shed contest so far this year..
I cant find hardly anything. We still have a bunch of snow and its supposed to hit hard again today. The main place I go the bucks are usually down low but this entire winter there has been guys lion hunting in there ard all the deer are scattered. I have only found 2 browns out of 30 sheds. Lots of miles and few sheds..
As soon as the weather warms up im heading up on my horse so you better get finding more!
