It looks like the trip was more than 7 years ago but it looks like good country and they got onto plenty of chamois.
As you where walking the ridge the catchments of the Red Beech sound like they would be worth a look as would the head waters of the Sudden valley if you are spending a few days on the tops, water could be a bit hard to find up there.
Good luck hunting chamois is good honest work.

No water and no animals anymore either, too many people had the same idea and it became gunfight at the OK corral for a while.
