SHEEP CAMP: A PLACE LIKE NO OTHER

For those who have experienced it, sheep camp is more than just a place to rest after a long day in the mountains. It is a place where friendships are forged, limits are tested, and memories are made that last a lifetime.

From remote cabins and wall tents to a small patch of level ground high in the mountains, sheep camp takes many forms. Each brings its own challenges, but all share a common purpose. The pursuit of wild sheep brings hunters, guides, wranglers, and camp crews together through long days, difficult terrain, and the anticipation of what tomorrow might bring.

Sheep camp teaches patience, perseverance, and the value of relying on those around you. It is where getting comfortable being uncomfortable becomes part of the experience. And despite the physical demands, unpredictable weather, and exhaustion, the hardest part is often leaving.

Because for a sheep hunter, the experience is about far more than finding a ram.

Over the fire, wild game done right. 🔥

At Feral Feast, Chef Jaime Teigen walked a crowd through cooking wild game over live fire: the do’s, the don’ts and the common mistakes that can ruin good meat.

Then she served it up: elk tri-tip with chimichurri on toasted bread. Every bite proved the point.

With hunting season underway, this is the part that comes after the harvest. Knowing how to cook what you bring home matters as much as getting it.

Tell us the biggest wild game cooking mistake you’ve made. We won’t judge. 😅

Because the best learning happens outside, around people who know the work.

Fuel matters when the mountains get steep.

At high elevation, your body is working harder while appetite and digestion can become more challenging. The key is keeping things simple: prioritize carbohydrates for energy, moderate protein for recovery, and plenty of fluids and electrolytes to stay hydrated.

Pack foods you know your body can handle, include something easy to eat on the move, and don’t underestimate the value of a hot meal or drink when temperatures drop.

What is happening to Stone’s sheep in the remote mountains of northern British Columbia? A 2020 aerial survey of the Finlay-Russel region counted just 142 sheep in areas where more than 300 had historically been recorded. That decline launched the Finlay-Russel Wild Sheep Project, a field-intensive effort using GPS collars, aerial surveys, health assessments, and habitat research to better understand what is driving changes in this iconic population. The work is supported in part by a $51,815 Wild Sheep Foundation Grant-in-Aid.

Researchers are finding that there may not be one simple answer. Nutrition, changing habitat, weather, and predation are all pieces of the puzzle. Wolves have been the leading cause of mortality among collared sheep, researchers have documented repeated wolverine predation, and spring 2025 pregnancy rates dropped to just 41 percent compared with the typical 85–90 percent. At the same time, scientists are examining how summer forage and body fat reserves could influence a ewe’s ability to survive winter and successfully reproduce.

The goal is not simply to understand the decline, but to use that knowledge to guide conservation on the ground. Working alongside the Wild Sheep Society of British Columbia, provincial wildlife staff, researchers, and First Nations partners, the project is helping identify where habitat treatments can have the greatest impact and what Stone’s sheep need to thrive into the future.

Wild Sheep Foundation STAFF HIGHLIGHT: JAIME TEIGEN

Meet Jaime Teigen, Wild Sheep Foundation’s Admin and E-Commerce Manager.

Jaime calls Lewiston, Idaho home and has been part of the WSF team for 3½ years. Her favorite part of the job is simple: working with a great team while helping support wild sheep.

Since becoming a mother, conservation has taken on an even deeper meaning.

“Conservation means teaching my daughter that any opportunity we have to be outdoors, whether private or public, we have to take care of that space and manage it to the best of our ability.”

Some of Jaime’s favorite memories have also been shared with her daughter, from experiencing Sheep Show together and watching the incredible support unfold during the auctions to being there when her daughter harvested her first whitetail buck.

When she isn’t working, there’s a good chance you’ll find Jaime on the river chasing walleye or in the kitchen cooking. Her dream hunt is for moose, her bucket-list destination is Greece — preferably with plenty of good food — and one thing she’ll readily admit she’s terrible at is decorating anything.

We’re proud to have Jaime as part of the Wild Sheep Foundation team.

Parker Moton had never hunted when he first picked up a bow in fifth grade through the Wild Sheep Foundation’s Shooting, Hunting & Ethics Education Program, or S.H.E.E.P. What began with monthly Learn to Shoot Archery clinics in Reno soon led to the WSF archery team and a growing interest in hunting. For Parker, who didn’t come from a hunting family, those opportunities opened a door to an outdoor world he had never experienced.

His next step was a S.H.E.E.P. wild pig and fishing trip in Texas with his dad. Parker caught bass but returned home without a pig. Instead of discouraging him, the experience gave him his first real look at hunting. Back in Nevada, he continued working toward his hunter education certification and later attended a Learn to Hunt clinic with the Chukar Chaser Foundation and WSF, where he learned fi***rm safety, trap shooting, bird hunting and how to clean and prepare harvested game.

Then Parker drew a Nevada antelope tag for the fall of 2026. With a new r***e, plenty of practice and his dad and grandfather beside him, he headed into the Nevada backcountry. After difficult stalks, missed opportunities and nearly deciding to head home, Parker chose to give it one more try.

That persistence paid off when he successfully harvested his first big-game animal. He and his family then faced another new challenge together: field dressing the antelope, packing out the meat and learning firsthand the responsibility that comes after the shot.

Parker’s journey shows what S.H.E.E.P. is ultimately about. An archery clinic became a team, the team sparked an interest in hunting, and each new experience gave him the skills and confidence to take the next step. Along the way, Parker discovered that the reward of hunting isn’t measured only by what comes home in the cooler. It can also be found in the people beside you, the lessons learned, the challenge of the pursuit and a few quiet minutes beneath the Nevada sky looking up at the Milk way.
