It was pitch dark after I found and gutted him.   I took a branch and propped the rib cage open and came back the next day with my brother to pack him out.   The unit stayed open for a few more years before being closed.   The area was the Russian Butte and you can see it when you drive east on I 90 past Mt Si.

Most guys that kill a Mtn goat come back with a pretty good story, and in the end, those are the special times that count👊🏔👊
Yes they are! Thanks for sharing

Here are two of my own favorites. 
My first buck, age 13.
My 2010 Montana Mule Deer (this one is my favorite because I killed it during that November blizzard in Montana when it got -20)
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

This was a good looking buck that I got after missing a great buck. That year I seen a group of bucks that had a high 190’s buck, 180ish buck that I missed, a 30-31 inch wide 165ish buck(I killed him the following season) I never seen that giant again, rumors were he was around for two more years. I did scout for this buck during that time but I never located him again

This is the wide buck that I referred to above. I shot him in a rock slide the next year, I had to push the stock since I had other hunters moving in from below. The buck cart wheeled for 200-250 yards. He busted basically everything, I found most of the pieces. This was a prized trophy prior to the fall :bash:
