14th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
THE HIGHLINE RAM

Bighorn Ram on The Highline Trail On July 31, 1999, some hiking companions, including the hotel nurse, and I had taken a hike from Logan Pass to the Granite Park Chalet in Glacier National Park. It was a rainy, foggy day, though not a very comfortable hike, was ideal for scenic, wildlife, and floral photography. It was while were headed back to Logan Pass that this bighorn ram approached us from the opposite direction.
