Mountain goats near Glacier National Park

We visited the Goat Lick Overlook the last time we went to Glacier National Park in 2020. This time, when we arrived, people were leaving with binoculars and long camera lenses saying there weren’t any goats. That was true for a few minutes, but then the goats arrived right next to the parking lot the disappointed people had just vacated.
