Grazing by the roadside

Lovely to see the mountain goats so close. They were grazing by the roadside with young kids, we passed by here twice and were not disappointed to have photographic opportunities both times.

This is right off the road and safe for small children. Even if you don’t see goats it’s a great view and no effort to try. It’s marked goats and glaciers now.

Goats everywhere!

I have to admit that we completely missed this on our way to Jasper, but on our way back we slowed down our driving speed (hard to do with all the other cars who tailgate you constantly). But if you stop caring about the tailgaters,...More

No goats and no signs

No better way to see wild white mountain goats

We took the Icefield Parkways (Lake Louis to Jasper) years ago and close to the destination we had our closest encounter of mountain goats. They were three or more white mountain goats scattered on the cliff right beside the highway. Later I found out that...More
