Mt Evans Mountain Goats
By Karl Peschel on Jun 18, 2007 in day trip

A couple weeks ago I posted an article on the TeachMeToShoot website about joining a local camera club. One benefit I mentioned is club sponsored trips guided by members. This past Saturday I got up very early (3 AM) to trek up to Mt Evans here in CO. A club member took a group of us up there to shoot mountain goats. It was well worth getting up that early.
Besides the yearling pictured here, there were 6-8 newborns and a whole bunch of Moms and Dads too. I was absolutely surprised that we were able to get so close to these animals. They are very used to humans, but we always watched that we didn’t get between Mom and baby.
I put up a little Mt Evans slide show on my photo website. Check it out if you’d like.
