Goats on Mt. Si
« on: April 20, 2014, 07:13:05 PM »
Took some pictures of some goats roaming the hillside out on Mt. Si. Pretty kewl

Quality is tough because at that range and zoom you have to be really solid on the tri-pod and it was a little shaky but you can definitely see them.

Neat to see them there. Thanks for sharing. My mother thinks I'm weird with my spotting scope in her backyard.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Thanks Brother-

Yea I had my video camera stuck to the backend of my spotting scope and pulled those "stills" off the video. Those goats are probably 800 to 1,000 away and out of some pretty steep stuff. If I was more off to the side of them you could see slope but trust me when i tell ya, it would be harnesses and lines to hang out where they're hangin out as one wrong move could be your last.

Cool to see um though

Sweet, I have heard they were up there but have never seen them.  Thanks for sharing.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.
