Mountain Goat in Glacier Park

D3-072109-168

I saw this mountain goat along the Going-To-The-Sun Road in Glacier National Park, Montana. Had to shoot it from my car. So I practically stood up inside the car, as much as I could, to get a shot downhill. I stopped traffic in the road. Wasn't going to miss a chance to get a shot of a mountain goat. :)

Great shot! I was in Glacier Park about the same time as you, what a beautiful place. We saw these goats along the trails and near the visitor center and had fun trying to get a nice shot like this one.
Cheers!

Beautiful shot. Looks like a big animal. I guess you had to get high to be able to see over the wall?
