Could he have seen a sheep while still in the parking lot and never made it to the trail because he went in the direction of the sheep??
This is something I would have done. Despite numerous visits to the Palm Springs area, I had never seen bighorn sheep. It became like an obsession. I drove and hiked to specific spots (at the recommendation of rangers and visitor center staff) to no avail.
(Ironically, I finally ended up seeing some in Canada when I wasn't even looking for them. I stumbled across a pair chilling in the shade on the front lawn of a house in a residential neighbourhood in Radium Hot Springs, BC. I nearly lost my mind!)
