Big thanks to Rick at Cedar River for doing an awesome job on this mountain goat. He was an excellent guy to work with and I'm very happy with how it turned out.

Great looking mount.

Not yet. But I'm excited to tell the doc at our toddler's 2-year-old checkup that one of her first fifty words is "mountain goat."

Looks awesome! That’s a great animal!  My 1yr old daughter loves my goat mount. Definitely stands out compared to the deer.

Sweet mount!
You pulled that critter off Mt Margaret in ALW?
Common stock, we work around the clock.
We shove the poles in the holes.

It’s not right vs left, they’re both fed from the same trough. It’s a distraction…It’s have vs have nots and in that scope, everyone here is a have not…
It’s only ever been about class war… Top 1% vs everyone else… Tank the two party system and get real, meaningful change…Whoops, just spilt my beer….

Beautiful goat and congratulations.  I would also like to throw a plug in for Rick. Great taxidermist but a better person.

Rick is doing a full body mount of my goat from last year.  These pictures get me excited about mine.  Looks great.

No, this was from the Margaret unit just north of Mt. St. Helens in Skamania County. Within the St. Helens Monument.

Great looking mount. If it were me, I'd be painting that wall a dark accent color to really make that white goat pop  8)
