White Goat Wilderness Area, Wilderness area in Clearwater County, Canada.

White Goat Wilderness Area contains tall mountain peaks, dense forests, permanent snowfields, glaciers, and meadows filled with purple and yellow wildflowers.

The area received official designation as a protected wilderness zone in 1965, establishing strict regulations for conservation and recreational activities.

Mountain trails within the area follow traditional paths used by early explorers and native inhabitants for crossing through this section of Alberta.

Visitors need topographic maps at 1:50,000 scale covering Whiterabbit Creek, Cline River, Columbia Icefield, Sunwapta Peak, and Job Creek for navigation.

The region houses woodland caribou, mountain goats, and bighorn sheep at elevations up to 2100 meters where forests transition into alpine meadows.
