Goat stuck in hole (Alaska)
« on: November 23, 2009, 10:01:18 PM »
Had to post this for you guys got an email from my buddy back home...Coming from the most legit of sources...

Hey Guys

So this weekend we had the 2nd annual Feast in the Fjord. Also known as the "Fjeast".  Out at one of the forest service cabins out of Seward.  From the cabin is a cool hike to some old WW2 ruins.  Old bunkers and such approximately 3 miles away.  So we hiked up there and low and behold this is what we found, a freakin goat stuck in a hole about 7 to 8 feet deep and 12 to 15 feet across.  Ben and I were walking together and I had just pointed out some fresh goat tracks in the snow that had fallen the night before when Matt Mead says you guys there's a goat stuck in this hole.  A very healthy Billy in the prime of his life, maybe 5 or 6 years old.  So we all worked together and picked up a few trees and some brush to make a way for it to get out.  The next day Ben, Dave and Bruno (some of Ben's work buddies) hiked back up to check on him and sure enough he'd made it out.  Probably the day before because they didn't see and tracks in the fresh snow.  Pretty crazy, who knows how long he'd have been in there or if he'd have made it out at all if we wouldn't have hiked up there.  Blaine has posted a video he took on facebook, you can find it if you go to my page.  I think my goat karma is back to normal after killing one this fall.
