just re - living last years goat hunt ......
long story short - at the top of the ridge we found significant sign...droppings and hoofs marks....moved to the end of it and set up a camp.
Suddenly I am awaken by hoof stomping...loud....close to the tent.....WTF!...snorting....i am confused - think to my self - horse? ..no....moose?...no, we are at the top of the mountain- alpine...!
more stomping and snorting -its 5am....its gotta be goat!? Sounds like it wants a piece of us...its bloody close...well, we decided to defend ....grub rifles and run out.....by the time we managed to unzip and get out ....frozen ground...in socks and undies with rifles at ready....flashlights searching....nothing....I guess we scared the attacker away.....good!
Something to remember anyways...
Wander if anybody had similar experience with goats?
And no it wasn't a bear....I know what bears sound like.....
Cheers!
