As you know from a previous post, Meg and I enjoyed an excellent day hike from the Sperry Chalet to the Sperry Glacier. The hike climbed steadily through four levels of waterfalls and lakes, before reaching a high snow field that led the Sperry Glacier.
To reach this last level, Meg and I had to climb up through Comeau Pass, a cleft in the rock wall that had been widened to create steps. A plastic covered steel cable provided protection and balance. Meg was ahead a me, when she stopped and said, “Eric, there is a mountain goat looking down at me. Who has the right of way?” Fortunately the goat was merely curious and allowed Meg to continue upwards. I did get some memorable shots, including the last one of a young goat kid.
that is fantastic experience, i noted that Meg is climbing in a very stable and quick pace, that is so athletic! cool!!
Leave it to you and Meg to encounter some goats! What great shots… Thank you for sharing all of your travel experiences.
It was indeed a remarkable, unforgettable moment–a very special experience.
Thanks, the time was most special. Meg was kind enough to move her arm so I could get these shots 🙂
