The road to the top of Mt. Evans, Colorado finally opened on the 28th, so I was really excited to get up there as soon as possible to begin my search for mountain goats (lacking decent photos of them, for no good reason). The trip up on the 30th presented some awesome vistas and a couple of marmots, but only one goat – a big billy on the run at about a million yards. Early morning on the 31st, however, made for some great goat shooting.
