Bighorn Sheep Ewes Spotted On Cottonwood Pass Road Late in the afternoon, I drove up Cottonwood Pass Road for a leisurely drive and spotted a cluster of bighorn sheep ewes intently eating on the roadside. With camera in hand, I couldn't resist taking pictures.

Webmaster Steve Poses With The Bighorn Sheep Ewes I sat in my vehicle for about ten minutes, just relaxing, listening to music and sending a text message to friends about the bighorn sheep ewes. Then I felt inspired to walk out on the road and get a picture with myself and the bighorn heep ewes! Oops! I cut myself off ... There. Much better!
