Skier Meets Mountain Goat at 10,000 Feet

Occurred on March 7, 2018 / Big Sky, Montana, USA

Info from Licensor: "A funny thing happened on the way to dropping into Coldspring, a double black 'headwaters' chute at Big Sky Resort, Montana. Reaching the chute requires a long traverse, or skiing laterally, on a narrow path of packed snow over rock bands; though you pass above one other chute, there is no way to cross the steep slope of loose rock to reach it further below. You can only go forward. But where the traverse bends around the corner and out of site, I spotted an elvish white thing, a shaggy-warm mountain goat standing in the sun. I paused, warm myself with awe. He was beautiful! How often does one get to see a goat, well, being a goat at 10,000 feet?"
