Went to the goat lick overlook,but it was closed. Tried to call someone from Glacier Park but no one would answer we did call during open hours.
Description:Mountain goats from Glacier National Park. Other animals like elk and black bears have also been known to visit the lick. Grizzly bears, mountain lions, elk, moose, lynx and mountain goats all call the park home. The social ranking of goats serves to reduce direct conflict which, due to the sharpness of their horns, could result in serious injuries. The shift to succulent green vegetation each spring alters the goats' mineral balance and may cause them to seek the minerals found at the Goat Lick. Glacier National Park Visitors to Glacier National Park quickly come for many reasons, but often chief among them is the abundance of wildlife. A population of mountain goats are known to use the lick.
