I wasn’t able to spend any time this summer or fall when I was back visiting family to look for goats in what was their normal spots throughout GMU 356.
For those of you that actually spend a reasonable amount of time in that unit, did you see any changes to the mountain goat patterns after the fire? I’m planning on hiking up into their historical wintering spots and taking pictures if I get back for the Holidays. Looking at a post fire burn severity and vegetation map, it looked like a lot of their ground was nuked.
