This unit has a population estimate of ~160 mountain goats. This is a difficult and physically demanding hunt.
Scouting Tips: Most of the mountain goats in this unit can be found near Loafer Peak, Bald Mountain, and Mount Nebo above or near 11,000 feet. Scouting trips are highly recommended. A good spotting scope and binoculars are essential. Mountain goat hunting requires a lot of glassing in cliff faces and "Bollies." Mountain goats do move during the year, so where you find them in the winter and summer may not be where they are in the fall. Some areas they stay fairly consistently all year while others they move quite far. Scouting is most effective the last couple weeks before the hunt opens when they are more likely to stay in the same general area. Goats do have areas they like and stay in the same general area but they can simply walk over the ridge and be gone for a day or two. What they can hike in minutes can take you all day.
Behavior: Like other wildlife, they are most active in the early mornings and evenings, but they can be up and moving any time of day. Most of the time they are in the cliffs or on rocky ridge tops, etc... occasionally move down into the trees so don't overlook those areas too. Mature Billies often like to hang out in very steep, rocky, cliffs by themselves or in small groups of two and threes. Nannies with kids prefer areas that are a little less steep are open and green where they find better feed. Nannies and kids are usually in larger groups of five to fifty.
Billy vs. Nanny: It is very difficult to tell the difference between a billy and a nanny mountain goat from a distance. Please review the Rocky Mountain Goat Hunt Orientation packet to learn how to properly identify mountain goats https://dwrapps.utah.gov/wex/examBorder.jsp?content=loginForm.jsp& formstat=0.
There are also other informational resources including this video produced by the Rocky Mountain Goat Alliance

While permits are either sex permits, hunters are encouraged to take billies and avoid harvesting a nanny with a kid.
