This is one of the coolest nature experiences of my life. I was lucky enough to pull up on these two rams as they were fighting their guts out. Before the dust had settled I was out of my truck and assembling my camera gear. I snapped a few photos then moved closer and snapped a few more. As I continued this pattern of snap and sneak, I realized that the rams were so involved in beating each other up that they could care less what I did, so I got in a good spot and photographed them until my camera battery died. Another amazing side note is that the rams continued to fight and scuffle for over 8 hours!

Due to my camera set up I was unable to get any photos of the rams crashing together. The set up I have right now wouldn’t allow me to shoot at a fast enough speed to freeze them at the speeds at which they came together. I am currently working on getting my hands on a nice lens but until then this is the best I can do. It was incredible to hear the crash as the rams hit horns together at full speed. It sounded like someone was rolling boulders off a cliff. The percussion after each hit would echo through the canyons surrounding their battle ground.
