Stone Sheep Hunt Day 4 July 31, 2008

7 am.  Grey skies, windy and low overcast.   Vikki put on silk long johns and a wool undershirt.  We ate porridge for breakfast and a gray jay checked us out.  This will be our camp and so we will come back to our stuff here.  We headed up trail to the left.  Up in the alpine there were lots of small flowers.  We spotted 4 Mountain Caribou, two of which were really big ones. It is terribly windy and so Vikki sat on the hillside while Bryan went up the 1 km to the skyline.  Along the ridge he saw 11 Cow Caribou.  
That evening we had Macaroni and Cheese and Sausages.  Bryan showed Vikki how to make Biscuits in a Bucket. Inside that aluminum bucket is a small rack.  In this batch he'd forgot the tinfoil under the batter so some fell through the grate. We washed socks and had a possible bath.  The view from here is amazing but Bryan told Vikki ..."Wait til you get up top"
