The picture is on a different discussion. This one didn't upload propertly. The blizzard is because it's all white because the picture didn't upload.

White mountain goat in a snowstorm - I caught these white mountain goats in the distance during a snowstorm in the Rocky Mountains. You can see them huddled into the wind to keep warm.

Too bad about that sudden snowstorm when you took your picture. You should have put the camera on the "snow" settings. I can almost make out those white mountain sheep on top of the Half Dome if I squint. Maybe you should have used a tripod that sometimes helps.

Here is a similar picture I took in the Rocky Mountains last year. I used a tripod so you can easily make out the mountain pass and the wild life. If you look carefully you can see six adults and a baby mountain goat.
