RE: Dys goat hunt
Getting a tag is going to be the problem in the lower 48. It took me 13 years to draw here in Colorado. You don't need a guide in Colorado. I went in unit G13. Lots of goats there. NR also get a few a tags. I hunted Iowa Peak, Mt Huron, Missouri Peak.
Not to many tags for NR in UT, WY.
Not sure about MT. I would look at Washington State-----quite a few goats in the Cascades.
Good Luck------CB
Another thought would be to buy some raffle tickets. I know they sell Mtn Goat & sheep raffle tickets here in Colorado. # of tickets for sheep is 1500, for goats it's 500. Cost is $25 per ticket. This is from memory. Just a thought---maybe worth $100 to take a chance.
