Aw thanks! I was hiking in Denali National Park. What a beautiful place.

That's awesome. I was curious about the story leading up to that shot, thanks for sharing. I bet that got your adrenaline pumping a bit, those guys can give you a nasty bump. I've had similar stare-downs with White-tailed Deer over here but I don't know if they could ever be as photogenic as that. Hopefully it gets nominated for Spotting of the Day or something - It's definitely worthy.

I couldn't believe how close he came to me! This picture is not zoomed in at all. They always tell you what to do if you run into a bear on the trail or a moose on the trail, but they never said anything about sheep! He just kind of watched us, then moved on and joined his buddies. :)
