THE PEAK: An Alaskan Dall Sheep Hunt | Full Film
Unforgiving terrain, high altitude, and one shot to get it done. One wrong decision means you come home empty handed, and one wrong step means you aren’t coming home.
Trek alongside HuntWise ambassador, Joe Griffin, as he goes to the edge of the world-up to The Peak-in pursuit of Alaskan Dall sheep.
Nothing was given on this hunt. Everything was earned.
Dall sheep are the northernmost wild sheep in the world, spending most of their lives on the jagged slopes of mountains. Their horns take up to 8 years to grow and are composed of keratin, the same material as our fingernails.
In the hunting world, Dall sheep are known as the most majestic mountain animals on this planet. To embark on a sheep hunt is one of the most remote, backpack-style hunts a person can do. At times, you are truly a prisoner to the mountains. It's a test of the body and mind like no other.
One of the biggest challenges hunters face is sheep's keen eyesight, which has adapted to the harsh, open terrain in which they reside.

Thanks Ed! It was an experience of a lifetime for sure!
There is a difference between killing a ram & hunting a ram, he got to hunt a ram. Earning that mountain monarch makes him all that more special. Congrats
Great Hunt, and awesome Ram! Glad we could help make this dream a reality and a memory you'll never forget.

The emotion at 22:30 is the best feeling in the world and considering that it is on video will be something you will be able to relive including the goose bumps and tears for the rest of your days! A close second to that emotion is the brother hug between you and your guide . I know I would have never had that opportunity without mine! Thank you for sharing!!

Let’s freakin go!! Well done!! I can’t imagine the GB of footage, and how tough it was to make it into the length it is. Let alone, trimming for a 30 minute tv show. One of the KZread perks is length capability! Well done to the HuntWise crew, WTA, and Joe for the long nights of training up and down dunes and ski resort! You were rewarded for the hard work.

Congratulations…well earned. What were you shooting for a weapon there? Kind regards New Brunswick Canada 🇨🇦
Good video, keep it up. Just something I noticed, if you’re going to put text in the video maybe think about putting it to the side or bottom of the screen. Having it centre screen is quite distracting and takes away from the film
GREAT HUNT ! Way to go, congrats ! what caliber rifle did you use ? I’m going next year and I could bring 300 RUM or 6.5. I can shoot both very well and the 6.5 is a lighter rig …..
@Randy_Savage_ohyeah

for Sheep would go with the lighter 6.5. They are not massive or super tough animals and u will appreciate the weight savings

Great filming, hunt, shot and guide. Absolutely depressing and boring narration though.
Would you guys ever take a guy whose never hunted on one of these trips
So many talks for a so little action.. Disappointing
