p.1 #1 · Mountain Goats on Icefields Parkway


I was taking a picture of the Glacier and a mountain goat stuck his head up from a almost shear cliff over the edge. So I switched to photographing mountain goats.

Man do they have an ability to look down 2000' without flinching.

The baby casually walked on the cliffs beside the mom just over a 2000' plunge.

Here are my best shots of the time, which maybe too much shooting down.

Comments and feedback is appreciated. Scott

Superb pictures. I specially like the juxtaposition of the red lichen on the rocks with the white of the goats. The landscape image is equally excellent.

Kell: He was cute and more concerned about me than the 2000' drop. Glad you like them. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott


birdied: My wife is afraid of heights and for a few shots I had to lean way out over the fence (after checking that the fence would hold my 225lbs. She was not impressed. It is scary to look down. Glad you like them. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott


James McQueen: Glad you like them. They were fun to take. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott


rb_stern: It is an impressive area with cliffs and glaciers and mountain goats. I am not sure what the goats eat on the side of the mountain. Glad you like them. Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Scott

Beautiful images Scott. The landscape shot is just gorgeous and the goats, especially the young one, is totally precious.

Super set Scott, the little ones look great, but momma needs a new coat real bad. This is one of my favourite spots.
