  We present a high-resolution spectrum of the high redshift, lensed quasar
Q1208+1101, obtained with the echellette spectrograph on the Multiple Mirror
Telescope. We examine the new and published spectra and provide an updated list
of high-confidence metal-line absorption systems at z=1.1349, 2.8626, 2.9118,
2.9136, 2.9149. Combining this with a simple model of the gravitational lens
system allows us to constrain the possible lens redshifts. The high-redshift (z
> 2.5) and low-redshift (z < 0.4) candidates can be ruled out with high
confidence. The current spectra effectively probe about 40% of the redshift
range in which the lens is expected. In that range, there is only one known
metal-line absorption system, an MgII absorber at z=1.1349. We consider the
possibility that this system is the lensing galaxy and discuss the implied
parameters of the galaxy.
