Mid-Asian Ibex - Uzbekistan

12-year-old monarch. 51"
Thank you. It was a butt kicker of a hunt. It was built around helicopter insertion to save a 3-day horseback ride in and 3-day trip out. But it was all boots on the ground and hunting up from there. Mysteriously, the area was hit with a freakish snowstorm just before we arrived and a big rainstorm on the first day of the hunt. That moved the ibex out and we spent hard days trying to find them before connecting. Overall, it was worth it although hunts in November are much easier because the ibex congregate more and move to much lower altitude - sometimes only a few hundred yards up from the valley floors. Uzbekistan is a wonderful country. Thaks again and take care!
