Took the family on a quick trip to Glacier National Park. Had a great time and found these guys and girls on one of the hikes.

Great photos, just be careful with your families around those goats, remember they are wild animals, so be aware of any aggressiveness.

I was there a few years ago in late November. Saw 7 grizzlies, the biggest black bear i have seen and tons of sheep and goats. Taking the bike on the 19Th. Hope we see as many animals as last time.

just thought id mention it since nobody else did.  dont forget about the goat that killed a hiker in olympic national park, what was it, two years ago?  gored the guy, then stood over his body preventing his friends from helping him while he slowly bled to death.  this was shortly before they changed the law so that people with concealed carry permits could take sidearms into parks.     might be a good idea to keep the kids at a bit more of a distance from wild animals.

Cool picture for sure but I have to agree with the statemet above.  Looks though these three Goats are more like park pets  :chuckle: :chuckle: However, they still wild park pets  :chuckle: :chuckle:

The Olympic goats showed continued aggressiveness toward humans.  These Glacier goats are seldom if ever a problem.  Nice pictures.
