Goats will climb anywhere. My once neighboor had a lot of problems with his because they climbed into apple and wallnut trees to pick the fruits.

They don't have hands. Hooves only.

And those pics are pretty incredible.

Mountain goats in Montana's Glacier National Park may travel thousands of feet a day—vertically. This one descended a sheer rock wall to lick salt and other exposed minerals. Nutrients that aren't as available during the long winter may trigger the hankering.
that goat climbed down a cliff with a 90 degree drop... to lick a rock. How are these guys not extinct?

This is insane. Animals are so specialized and adapted they can do this. Humans would blow up the mountain to get the minerals for a 1 time use.
I wish I was a mountain goat.

A friend kept a couple that he used to find up a tree quite often but those boys are astounding, I see a Cliffhanger remake coming up, but with goats instead, cool : )

No vibrant basses or sweet tube amps for goats.

No, but they don't need them to be happy. They're perfectly happy licking rocks. I wish that was all I needed to be happy.
