19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Cliff Hanger

At the North East enterance of Yellowstone before entering the Lamar Valley, there is rugged country. This country is known for its snow and rock cliffs, and better yet, for the local herd of mountain goats. This herd can be very illusive and not seen for days on end, then there is that brief moment you can be watching the cliffs and see mom teaching her young new born kid how to cliff jump!
