Goat Mountain


Well I finally made it up Goat mountain. It’s sure a lot easier to find the train in summer. Especially when the trail markers are only about five feet tall and we had a snow cap well over 12 feet last year. I discovered Dam mountain and Thunderbird ridge by way of snowshoe last winter. The view is magnificent and the climb is easier than Hollyburn Ridge, which is also awesome. The back country was closed due to avalanche risk with such a heavy snow cap.

So here we are. Goat Ridge from Goat mountain looking over the next stop, Coliseum mountain in the top left.
