Why this is a favorite of mine...

I had never seen a white Mountain Goat before and was so hoping to while out west this past Fall. I never dreamed I would see one with a kid by it's side. We were on our way to Mt. Rushmore when we saw them alongside the road. They are typically high up on the rocks when you are lucky enough to see them. These were 20 feet away and I didn't see any more the rest of the trip.
