We were in the flat tops area. I just checked out the map and the cattle were definitely in the wilderness area (N Fork Derby Creek drainage), the sheep were not. Sheep were on the Little Flat Tops which is outside the wilderness areas.
I was pretty surprised to see livestock in the wilderness area/alpine & sub-alpine areas.
