From Vancouver Island to the Okanagan đŸ”„đŸ”ïž What an incredible trip from the Island over to Penticton, BC for the Mountain Hunting Expo hosted by the Wild Sheep Society of British Columbia. There’s nothing like being in a room full of passionate hunters, conservationists, and outdoors men and women who truly care about protecting our wild sheep and backcountry landscapes. The Wild Sheep Society of BC continues to raise millions for conservation projects across the province — from habitat enhancement to wildlife stewardship and education. That’s exactly why I’m proud to be a Lifetime Member. This isn’t just about hunting — it’s about legacy, conservation, and ensuring these wild places and wild sheep thrive for generations to come. Grateful for the conversations, the connections, and the shared passion for the mountains. Already looking forward to next year. #WildSheepSocietyBC #MountainHuntingExpo #ConservationMatters #LifetimeMember #BCBackcountry

Hard not to think about moments like this after talking to so many great people about one of our greatest passions as a mountain hunter
 Hunters truly are the World’s first and still the greatest conservationists on Earth!! What a great week of raising millions of dollars for our wild sheep resource! #wildlife #wildsheep #conservation #family #selective
Is @buckyihlenfeldt going to make it out of DAY ONE!? My good friend Bucky, drew the <1% at @wildsheepfoundation Show to get his chance to go and punch his tag on a sheep hunt. Bucky would face EVERY obstacle imaginable, but he threw everything he had it, leaving it all on the mountain. @scentloktechnologies #sheephunting #hunting #bowhunting #wildsheepfoundation #conservation
We’re proud to spotlight one of our incredible banquet sponsors, Final Rise! @final.rise They’re generously donating one of their Upland Game packs to this year’s Utah Wild Sheep Foundation banquet, and we couldn’t be more grateful for their support. The rugged country that holds wild sheep is the same country that challenges bird hunters every fall — and stewardship of those wild places connects us all. Thank you, Final Rise, for supporting wild sheep conservation and the landscapes that make it all possible! #conservation #guzzlers #utahwildsheep #wildsheepfoundation
Penticton 2026! The @wildsheepsocietybc Salute to Conservation and Mountain Hunting Expo was the perfect cap’ to a long run of road trips to various conventions. From the ram awards, banquets, life member brunch, vendor hall and educational seminars there was no shortage of entertainment and excitement for all who attended. Combine that with a record breaking weekend for conservation funds raised by the society and you’ve got yourself one for the books! I want to say a HUGE thank you to all of you who came out and attended as well as the amazing team behind the scenes that made it possible. Feeling honoured to be back on the board for another 2 years and I can’t wait to see what we can accomplish in the name of conservation if this trend continues. #wildsheepsocietyofbc #wssbc #wildsheepforever @wildsheepsocietybc Camera cred: @firdale_creative

What a fabulous weekend at the Salute to Conservation & Mountain Hunting Expo. @wildsheepsocietybc Our Food, Fitness & Firearms seminar had a great turnout, with both women and men in attendance. It was incredible to see the room filled with people eager to learn and connect in the outdoors and in conservation. A big thank you to everyone who came out and supported the seminar. Your engagement, questions, and conversations afterward meant so much. We would also like to extend a sincere thank you to Dallas Matson with Twisted North Design, Echo Valley Ranch & Spa and Trails Coffee for their generous donations and support. Thank you to the WSC committee, our WSC Ambassadors, and the Wild Sheep Society of BC for standing behind this program and helping make it possible. Weekends like this remind us why we do what we do! #womenshapingconservation #wildsheepsocietyofbc #salutetoconservation #conservationleadership #mountainhuntingexpo
Tagged out just like that đŸ’„ There’s a moment that doesn’t get talked about enough. After the shot. After the grip and grin. After the miles and the grind. It’s when you pull the tag out of your pocket, cut it, and place it on the animal. That tag represents conservation dollars at work, Biologists managing herds, a system built to sustain wild places and a promise that nothing goes to waste. In remote country miles from a road you kneel down, zip tie that tag on, and it hits amongst other things that this isn’t just a hunt. It’s stewardship. We don’t just take from the wild. We participate in protecting it. #RCRLOutdoors #Hunting #Fishing #Whatsyourwhy #MIP - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
A ram we let walk last year for #fcf Still unsure if he was legal by age, very close to full curl but from our angle we just couldn’t tell. On his right side we thought he was at least 8yrs old but his left side just wasn’t as convincing. Only having a few minutes to watch him and not feeling confident at the time we let him walk away. #stonesheep #wildsheepfoundation #wildsheepsocietyofbc #hunting
