Thank you! It is worth the fight to GJ. Here's another favorite called Mt. Garfield. The natives called it Moody Mountain and it truly is. You can see it in the shots with the ewe. Hiking it takes a bit of effort and I did it once...2000 ft elevation in 2 miles got my attention as did the narrow trail.

I thought I would post a few from my neck of the woods. If you're ever this way, be sure to check out the Colorado National Monument. The ewe was nice enough to pose for me. Mt. Garfield is in the background. The females can be found alongside the road at times munching on foliage. I was told that the bighorn pecking - petroglyph is mostly likely from a basque sheepherder and not native rock art.
Magnificent shots ...especially enjoyed the ewe shots.

Wonderful landscapes, d. Really like the shots of the ewe.

All good! Will be over on the west slope in about a week. Have not been there in years. Your photos show the area well. Thanks for sharing.

...pretty nice stuff... I like pareidolia in #6...
That happens often with the rock walls here in Western Colorado. It is fun to try and see hidden objects or faces.
