Welcome, I'm near Seattle too.
I pretty sure (90%) that goats are seen as stock in WA at least on forest service land and national parks. We only take them to trails that allow stock for that reason, and Nick worked with various trail people for the forest service. A lot of trails are designated hiker only.
We also don't like dealing with the crowds and I think they are working on getting shuttle buses for hikers to the I-90 corridor because of all the parking problems, we won't be going there. For the most part we keep our goats on leads unless it's obvious there a very few of us on the trail because of off leash dogs, and liability.
Besides using maps as a resource we sometimes use the FS website.

I wish we had Nanno's view on where to take goats...

Today we stroll the neighborhood, someday we'll climb mountains together..
