Summary

Jason sits down and talks with Matt Snyder in Alaska. Matt has been in the Tok area hunting sheep for most of his life. They dive into the history of Matt's time in the surrounding mountains and his successes. They also talk about the current state of Dall Sheep and what may be causing the decline; from predators to harsh winters to disease. They wrap up the conversation with a recap of Jason's Dall Sheep hunt and what went into it.
