Quick Tips
GPS or a compass will be a necessity for any off-trail travel
Very rugged and steep terrain should only be traversed by those experienced in similar areas; trekking poles are highly recommended
This unit is quite remote, plan on gearing up prior to entering the unit as supplies will be very limited and require some driving no matter where you set up base camp
Bring proper water purification systems with you as these hikes are long and there are a number of available water sources throughout the unit if you come prepared
Plan on doing a backcountry style hunt in this unit. In order to get to some of the better goat habitats, you will need to hike miles and thousands of feet in elevation, which is something you will not want to do every morning and night. If you come prepared both mentally and physically, this could be a great hunt.
There have been reports of mountain goats living on Johnson Peak and the area surrounding it. This is a great place to gain your initial elevation into goat habitat, and on this ridgeback, you will have access to the rest of the good goat habitat further to the south.
