Mario Locatelli of Hamilton, Montana, has achieved international recognition for his mountaineering and endurance feats in the high country of Montana and elsewhere -- having climbed 50 of the world's highest mountains -- and over the years has been acclaimed endearingly by his friends and associates as the "Montana Mountain Goat." He is widely recognized for his skills and experiences n the upper reaches of the mountains, which he regularly refers to as the "high places" of his life. Throughout the years in which he visited those mountaintops, he spent many days, indeed months, observing the wild critters who moniker he carriers -- the Mountain Goat -- and this book presents an homage to his namesake. In this books he shares photographs and observations of dozens of experiences he enjoyed, even in some cases when he encountered incredibly adverse weather conditions, with Mountain Goats.
