Jánwu: mountain goats at Glacier Bay
Jánwu — mountain goats — clamber over the cliffs and ledges of Glacier Bay, and the Huna Łingit hunted them there long before it became a park.
- Their meat and tallow are treasured.
- Their horns are carved into elaborate spoons and shamanic headdresses.
- Their fine, thick undercoat is still prized for weaving ceremonial robes and tunics.
Hunting goats isn't allowed in the park, but tribal members may gather goat wool from the cliffs where goats live. Living high on the peaks, goats are seen as go-betweens of earth and sky, and Łingit oral history is full of stories about them.

Based on "Mountain Goat Crochet Pattern," by Ranger Hailey Burley, National Park Service; a work of the United States government in the public domain. Typing slips in the pattern are corrected from its own stitch counts: "in" for inc in four rounds, and body round 45, which the source counts as 40 stitches but which must be 48 to match rounds 44 and 46.
