Description
I was looking for a photo to put an 'end' to my Canadian Rockies series. This is a Mountain Goat walking along a road above the Athabasca River. They always seem to walk right on the edge. I was sitting there, taking photos of the mountains, on the other side of the valley and she walked right in front of me. No fear at all. Photo taken August 1988 with my old Pentax and recently scanned. Zoom works.
Wikipedia says: The Athabasca River originates from the Columbia Glacier of the Columbia Icefield in Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments.
They are very much appreciated.

This must be where the term 'Acting the goat' comes from!! I like this shot very much Dana and thanks for the reference.

I wonder how they keep their balance? I'd trip walking over a flat surface :) Nice shot. Aloha

Such an impressing view and depth you've captured here, dear friend. It's amazing to see this beautiful Mountain Goat on the edge. Such high, is for sure unmatchable for me. The view notwithstanding, I would shivering fall over the edge. A most fantastic photo. Dana!
