Mountain goats near Yale

Went with some family on a short excursion up the Fraser Canyon, yesterday afternoon. My dad wanted to stop at this one pullout, where he had recently been told that a herd of Mountain goats was hanging out on a mountaintop.

Sure enough, spotted some tiny white specks that I could barely make out, which turned out to be the goats:

That's awesome. Had no idea they would be up the canyon.

Same here. Apparently, they were displaced by the recent fires near Lytton.

That's a good-sized herd!

I've seen some on Lady Peak a few times (I think seven was the most) and once a billy by himself on Flatiron as well.
