Goat Viewpoint - Mount Kerkeslin

There is a popular stop along Highway 93, about 37 Kilometers (23 miles) south of the town of Jasper. Many people stop, only to be disappointed when they look over railing - no goats. I've seen folks take out their binoculars and scan the mountain across the highway to the east. I wonder if they ever find goats on that mountain?

A few time I've been lucky, and have been able to direct others where to look. If you've missed the goats on Mount Kerkeslin, these photos might be interesting. Look up, way up.
