Description
I loved seeing this mom and baby Mountain Goat nonchalantly coming down the stairs, as though they had just been shopping or perhaps doing lunch on a summer day! Mt Evans is over 14,000 ft high and is a favorite location for Mountain Goats in Colorado. With their amazing rock climbing skills, some stairs are nothing for these goats, who easily climb steep rocky cliffs just to reach a tasty morsel.
At the summit of Mt Evans are the ruins of Crest House. Constructed between 1940 and 1941, it served as a restaurant, gift shop, and tourist attraction until it was partially destroyed by a fire in 1979. Today, tourists -- and evidently Mountain Goats -- can be seen wandering through the ruins.
Mountain goats inhabit the Rocky Mountains and Cascade Range and other mountain regions of the Western Cordillera of North America, from Washington, Idaho and Montana through British Columbia and Alberta, into the southern Yukon and southeastern Alaska. ... Mountain goats are the largest mammals found in their high-altitude habitats, which can exceed elevations of 13,000 feet (4,000 m)."
Photo taken on June 26, 2018, at the top of Mount Evans in Colorado, over 14,000'.
