stone sheep getting salt - a photo on Flickriver

            This beautiful group of stone sheep were on the edge of the road descending from Summit Lake pass to MacDonald Creek in the Northern Rockies along the Alaska highway.  The road here traverses a steep rocky slope much favoured by Stone sheep (Ovis dallii stonei, a dark phase of the thin-horn sheep).  Fortunately the vehicles move slowly on this steep and curvy stretch with cliffs and steep drop-offs.
