Hypotheses<br />

Goats wintering in areas of higher snowfall<br />

with limited or no access to wind-swept<br />

ridges will make greater use of low-elevation<br />

habitat compared with animals wintering in<br />

areas of lower snowfall.<br />

In areas of deeper snow, goats will make<br />

greater use of mature stands.<br />

In winter, goats will select for old and mature<br />

forested stands and against early seral<br />

stands.
