Check out the Photo of this Mountain Goat taken a week ago on Ben Lomond Peak by Gary Knighton (works in maintenance here at Hill).
For an animal with hooves, they have fantastic dexterity.

Wow! That goat's incredible. And the mountain terrain combined with the town below is really cool.

OK--not to bore anyone....but....they have oily pads behind their hooves which act like SUCTION CUPS and help them bound around on rocks and slopes and things!
Very, very cool! Thanks for that photo!

A most-excellent pic, fer shure. I live in the same area that this pic taken in, and after I saw it, I had to go and take a few pix of my own of the Mountain Goats up on Willard and Ben Lomond peaks. Here's one cool shot...........
