Pack Goat 'Peanut' Climbs 14er with GoatCam

[wormlady8]

Thanks for sharing that great film with us!!!! Loved it.

Love your goats. Wish my wethers were so mellow. They're a couple of hyperactives. Also, that music is very fitting for goats!

[notMYplan]

crazy LOL

[piercedsquid]

Wow! What kind of goats are those, or what other breeds are good for packing? I want some. How do you train them? And is that particular breed any good for milk?

[F5LKW]

Still nice !

Also nice to your pack'n some heat on that belt! Its nice to know I am not the only one these days.

[goathiker]

I've never felt the need for 'protection' in the wild before the goats. But after several close encounters I'm carrying it solely for their benefit! I would HATE to standby empty handed just watching a predator dine on one of my buddies!

[Akitogiwi]

yo! can pack goat be pets...jus wondering

[goathiker]

Most definitely! But some cities don't consider 'livestock' to be 'pets' thus you aren't allowed to keep them within city limits.

[Akitogiwi]

thanks....and also do u know if the city of los angeles ....allow goats as pet...i tries to search it...but i couldnt fin anything...

[goathiker]

Try contacting your local 'Humane Society' or check with the County Planning Dept who are in charge of zoning and regulations for your city.

@goathiker what kind of "close encounters" are you referring to? Here in Idaho wolves are becoming a serious concern among people with pack stock and even dogs in the back country. And of course coyotes, bears, and cougars are something to watch out for. I've never worried for myself, but I genuinely worry about my goats any time I leave them in camp alone while I'm off hiking/fishing.

PS I am seriously envious of your big beautiful wethers. I need to breed my girls and get some boys on the team. Hey I'm also working on equipping them with APRS beacons, with solar recharge. 21st century digital goats!

Did you pay Peanut the "union rate" for his film making? He did a great job! I heard he wants a steadicam for his next film.

If Peanut used a SteadyCam I'd have to edit to some lame slow music which wouldn't allow me to hide all my poor editing skills!

[markbeermonster]

Another great video, look like a moster climb, I thought you were nearly there and hit another plateau.

Great editing and tune selection as always.

Keep on making the short films

good luck

73 & good DX

Great to see this video and even better to work you during the event with the North Jeffco Amateur Radio League on Mt Quandary near Breckenridge, CO.

Another classic video Steve. Great to see the views from the Peanut-cam! Fantastic.

All the best to you and the goats.

[diglamash]

I could not watch this. Made me dizzy.

[llachow]

[Marty369]

[dinanroom]

If you ever decide to come hike the Whites in New Hampshire, this viewer will carry Peanut's pack!
