Mountain goat color reference

Oreamnos americanus

The mountain goat lives on the steep cliffs of the Rocky Mountains and other ranges of northwestern North America. Despite its name, it is not a true goat. Its hooves have rough pads that grip rock, and its thick white coat keeps it warm.

Colors to reach for

Keep the coat white and cream with pale gray shadows, and use black for the horns, hooves, nose and eyes.

  • white
  • cream
  • silver
