First multi-day pack trip!

[Nanno]

I just got back from my first multi-day goat packing trip, and I'm so proud of my boys! We were out for three nights and the boys carried about 50 lbs. each. We went with a woman and her two llamas as well as the editor of Pack Animal Magazine. She organized the all-women's trip and tried to get representatives of several different types of pack animals together. Only the llamas and goats ended up representing, but it was a wonderful trip and I have to say--the llamas may have carried more weight but I really like my packgoats. Finn and Sputnik really did themselves proud. They never complained or objected to their loads or tried to disappear when it came time to saddle. They stayed up with me in the lead the whole time and crossed creeks, marshes, boulders, and a big scree slope. I'll post photos and stories about the trip later.
