Mountain Goat trail cam - Mt. Baker Wilderness - Winter 2014-15

Finally found time to put together a compilation of the video clips I got on my trail cam in Mt. Baker Wilderness.  I hate how grainy the video is, definitely need to upgrade trail cams soon to one with better video feature.

Enjoy!

Shane, as always, very well done.   

2 questions for you.  At approximate what elevation did you set your camera?  Also, did you have any predators in your videos? 

I climbed Mt. Shuksan a few weeks ago, and was surprised to see bobcat prints in the snow at about 7,000 feet.  (They sure looked like bobcat prints to me...)  Do you see them that high?

Roughly 3500 feet elevation.
Believe it or not I've only ever had one picture of a predator (including bears) in there in the last 5 years. That picture was of a cougar with 3 kittens. Not what I like seeing but in general I'm sure the goats hang out in there because of the lack of predators.

I've definitely seen bobcat tracks at tons of different elevations. There are also a few wolverines running around the Mt Baker Wilderness that definitely climb up to 7k plus elevation from time to time. We've see wolverine tracks very high on Baker and Shuksan in the past. I've even seen a wolverine chasing a nanny with twin kids once before I carried a video camera with me everywhere I went.
