Me and Zeek were out panning for some nuggets near Henderson canyon this last weekend when I noticed something off in the distance.
Zeek is a pretty good guy but he wasn't having much luck with the gold on this trip
I zoomed my camera all the way in to see what the two figures off in the distance were
I still had one more zoom level to use
Turned out there was a whole family of Bighorns out that morning
I think Spring may have been in the air as there seemed to be two males fighting over the cute one in the middle
This poor little feller lost his mommy
But all was good in the end
Well, Zeek and I had to get back to work before the boss man found us horsing around
It's a long day out in the fields

Awesome story but I think Zeek is spelled Zeke ;-)
Love those sculptures. Have to go check them out. Was that this past weekend?

Can't say I was ever much good with them spelling words and all...heck, now you're gonna tell me it's Pete and not Peet..dang..
Yeah, this last weekend was picture perfect, low 70's, slight breeze and sunny. Indian Valley was gorgeous! The park service also finally put up steel posts to keep campers out of the wash near Torote Canyon, people were ignoring the rocks and just moving them. They also cleaned up the rock fire ring at the very end of the road.
