Today, her drew GOAT Mt. Washington B
Should be fun.
We've never been out in that neck of the woods.
P.S. If you happen to know anything about goat locations out there, feel free to PM me. :tup:

What advice on planning?
Does anyone know if WDFW has a goat biologist, or any other tips on people to talk with?
Thanks,
Dan

Due to the amount of hikers. stay away from Ellinor and Rose. Start at Washington and hunt NE, there will be hikers but not nearly as many.

Dan-O, I also drew the Mt Washingtopn goat tag, but the A. Have you talked to Jeff Skriletz, with WDFW? He mentioned they will be flying the area either the last week of Aug or the first week of Sept to count the goats and to call him then and he will have more info about the location of the majority of the goats. Trying to keep us awat from the hikers I believe. How old is your son?
Yes, I talked to Jeff. Seemed like a super guy - wanting to help us and keep peace with hikers. :tup:
My son is 20. He's in great shape. Big frame, but runs 5-6 day a week.
His father is a different story......... although I've lost 35 pounds. I have a semi-bum ankle.......

My kid is 20, and about to head back for his Jr. year at Montana State.
He's working an internship this year and they just invited him on a 10 day trip to China......
Guess right where the trip falls................. :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:
The boy has a tough choice.
Obviously , he wants to go on the goat hunt.
But he absolutely LOVES the company he's interning with and wants to go to China with them.
I'm sick..... He has to make a decision pronto.

I know your son, I was just talking with him Sunday about his goat tag and giving him a hard time about thinking about not hunting!
Tough choice for sure. You have a great kid.

Hmmmmm..... Interesting. Now my curiosity is very peaked about how/where you talked to my kid......
Do you have a kid that's going to go to MSU?
If so, we might want to have a dad-to-dad talk about a few good things I've learned. Worthwhile discussion if you want.

He's been to a few of our church events with his friend Spencer. We were at Spencer's house Sunday when he stopped by to pick him up on their way to the Mariners game. We were talking hunting and he mentioned his dilemma.

Sorry about that. I was thinking it was one of the eastside tags.

One absolutely stellar opportunity -thanks to Nature Boy.
A goat really should have come home with us, but........ that's the way things go sometimes.
