The Beast the Color of Winter
by Chadwick
Discussed in context of mountain goat literature. The speaker mentions this as 'an incredible book' about mountain goats, noting that while Chadwick is 'not real hunting friendly' and his colleagues aren't either, it's still 'an informative as hell' book. The author is noted as still being alive and living in Montana.

The Big Sky
by A.B. Guthrie Jr.
Referenced when discussing mountain goats - someone mentions reading this book where 'a mountain goat saves his life' (the protagonist shoots and eats the goat). The speaker notes it's 'such a good book' and that it's why people call Montana 'Big Sky Country' because the book coined that term. The author's name was asked for but not clearly provided in the transcript.
