Banded Peak596 viewsAs a co-founder of the Banded Peak Challenge, a fundraiser for Camp Horizon, I did all of the promotional work. I needed a photo of the mountain so as soon as the road opened, I headed out on a bright sunny day. I saw these mountain sheep, slamed on the brakes and caught them just as they were about to bolt.
