October Goat hunts are for the most parts for Fools.
Iced up Mountain sides with Snow on them, better bring your climbing Gear. Been there done that, survived to tell the Tales.
In sort, no thanks.
Cheers

Be careful not to fall. I slide a long way down a shoot once way up high near Lillooet hunting goats. Only one mangy hunk of root to grab or I was 25 ft from going over a huge drop off. Partner thru me a rope or I would not be writing this. Take care in the mountains.
buy the book "A Beast the color of winter"

Spend more time glassing, they are active all day. You may have to glass the same slope for hours before they show themselves, you need patience when glassing. Good luck on your hunt.
From what I’ve seen in my limited experience is the big Billy’s will be at or near the top where they’re safe, until it’s time to get it on, then they’ll come down. Later season will have to best coat, if you care about that.
If there’s a heavily predator population expect them to be high.
goodluck
IMHO, the goat trophy is the hair not the horn
A mature late season goat makes for a worthy mount, something about a skinny neck Sept goat just looks odd.
Like LML alludes to, November is better
It doesn't take much area size to have goat terrain, timber can help hide an approach
Crampons are your friend
Never say whoa in the middle of a mud hole
Being a pair of cheap lightweight flip flops. Wear them when you set up camp and are just hanging out after a hunt. Your feet will love you for it. Also, pack a couple carrots. They are sturdy and don’t require any work. And after a couple of days of granola and mountain house meals, some carrots look mighty tasty
