I originally had a mountain goat picture from Glacier National Park, (http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,34123.0.html (http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,34123.0.html)) but considering this is a WA photo contest I figured I'd change it to a WA picture. I haven't posted pics from this trip but this is from camp last weekend on my bear hunting/mountain goat scouting trip. I wanted to scout out the mountain goats in the new Lake Ann unit in Mt. Baker.

There, that's better.

OK, so I'm not a photographer at all, and this pic was snapped with a digi camera that's probably 5 years old. But, these guys were up on a ridge just after sunrise when we hiked Mt. St. Helens. They watched us for over an hour. We were sucking wind clambering over boulders and stuff while they just sat there watching. I wish I'd brought my binos on this one.
Looks like they must hang out there often. Is it legal to hunt on the mountain?
