The San Bernadino National Forest 909-382-2682 has advised that their wildlife biologist says pack goats cannot go through ANY portion of the National Forest, and pack goats cannot be within 25 miles of a known Big Horned Sheep Habitat. They quoted a vague law "LMP Standard S-9" which I can't seem to find anywhere, and they refused to give me anything in writing. They said I can look up current herd locations through the California Department of Fish and Wildlife website. I couldn't find information there either. Do I just take their word for it? I read on packgoats.com that pack goats don't pose a risk to Big Horned Sheep. What is the advice here? I'm trying to hike a portion of the PCT with pack goats... this poses an enormous logistical challenge to my trip...
