07' Rocky Mountain Goat Pics

ELKOHOLIC · Oct 16, 2007

After two days of snow flurries and fog the weather broke long enough for me to locate and harvest my goat. The goats were really scattered and most had moved off the top. I dropped the goat 2 feet from a cliff and a near disaster. After a long vertical pack out I'm glad it's finally over. Notice how the fog rolled in again as we was ready to head out. Crazy weather!

NICE!!! I love the 3rd picture down. Where was this taken?

Congrats to you on the Billy and the very nice pictures too. One question, where were you hunting? Reason is that looks like civilization in the back ground of the 3rd picture.

Dumb question: Is it a nanny? The curve looks like a Billy but the length looks long. I have a tough time telling.

ELKOHOLIC · Oct 17, 2007

Cozmo, It is a nanny. Thats what I had a tag for. I noticed that trying to tell by the curvature of the horn is usually not a good method. Andyman, I know, wearing that Seahawks shirt he should have just jumped. LOL!

Nice goat!

It will look good on the wall with that long hair.

PleaseDear · Oct 25, 2007

Kinda sad but my bud's young son that drew with '0' points did not get his tag filled....

2nd season and we all know about the weather... every wknd was terrible and he really could not miss much more school days.

Oh well at least he was up there and had a good experience...

Robb, Thats really two bad to hear. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that more tags went unfilled. That weather was really crazy up there. The Fish and Game said they have never seen the goats that scattered before.
