And at such a range, even with Paul’s 10X glasses, I figured he had to be dreaming. I had assumed that goats would be very difficult to spot at a distance, what with the mountains encased in a sheath of fresh, glistening snow. At one of our frequent “breath stops,” Paul ambled up and suggested we inspect a small cave in the center of a near-vertical rock wall, almost a mile away across a major side canyon. As John and I picked our way ahead, Paul followed leisurely, glassing the more distant slopes. Footing was mean, and we progressed slowly, working toward some promising pockets of scrub timber. The timbered shelf we had been following made a sharp bend around the point of the ridge where we had just jumped the goat, and steepened into a north-facing, snow-covered scree slope. Our only problem now was to adjust to the type of hunting we had encountered. And we had just proved this theory correct. With any other biggame species, considering migratory habits and the extensive ranges involved, I would have considered this information as just another lead, but with goats I had felt the area deserved serious consideration. John and Paul had spotted several groups of goats from the opposite side of the valley on their one good day last year, and had carefully marked their location on the map. Within minutes, the tent was toasty-warm, and hotcakes were sizzling on the griddle. I inwardly congratulated myself on the foresight of having piled tinder and kindling between my head and the tent stove, so that all I had to do was reach out, shove the makings into the stove, tip the damper open with a long stick, and toss in a match. Shivering inside my down bag, I knew the temperature had to be hovering around zero, but this also assured me that the weather had cleared. My alarm cut the chill morning air like a scalpel. The swirling clouds parted briefly after I checked the picket ropes for the last time, revealing a stark moonbathed panorama of the endless cliffs and side canyons that rose directly from our campsite. The following morning we packed up our spike camp in improving weather, and by nightfall our new base of operations had been installed alongside a crystal creek at the base of a small hillside meadow. We returned to elk camp tired, but with the confidence of a good trail and plenty of horse feed.
Glancing back at our sorry party, I felt a deep kinship with the Indian in the famous painting “End of the Trail.” Soon we dropped off into the Crevice drainage, and the snow set in again in earnest. Pelting snow stung the backs of our necks and drove the ponies’ tails between their legs. As we hit the top of the first, the storm was kicking up again.
In order to reach the Absaroka Primitive Area without passing through Yellowstone Park (where firearms are not allowed), we would have to cross two timberline divides. But by the time we had mounted up and the pack mules had sighed their last soulful groans to convince me their modest loads were more than they could tolerate, the squeak of new snow against cold steel as the pack string moved out made me suspect that the cold weather was going to hold for awhile. Plus, this time around you can travel and visit lots of different places with kitten Tom.When I woke, skies had partially cleared, and I went about my predawn chores by moonlight, assured that this had been a typical autumn squall, and that ten days of Indian summer lay ahead of us. It follows up on other previous titles like Pou, Moy and other games from the Talking Tom saga, allowing players to take care of a friendly little virtual pet.
