The muzzle-loading hunt will be conducted Aug. 8 and 15.

Officials say the general rifle hunt will be held over nine consecutive Saturdays, beginning Aug. 22 and ending Oct. 17.

The bag limit for the season will be one sheep per hunter, regardless of equipment used. All ram heads must be turned in at the hunter check station.
