We weren't able to work our way along the ridge like we had hoped because it turned into a series of solid rock faces that were far to slick thanks to the light dust of snow. Our only option was to drop back down into the more broken rock midway up the mountain and work our way along and then back up so we could try and get a better look at the sheep further up. Unfortunately the fog set in like soup and after a couple of hours we realized it probably wasn't going anywhere. We dropped down the far side to avoid some more rock shelves and then followed a heavily used sheep trail back into the head of the first valley. As we dropped down into that valley the fog started to lift and we started seeing rams feeding along the head of the valley just below the snowline in this picture.
