When I’m on crunchy ground I kinda just give upor before taking steps (maybe two steps a minute in stalking mode),move leaves to the side a little with my boot, though that still makes noise. It feels easier to stalk quietly on steeper slopes because actively used game trails have fewer leaves and sticks on them. But of course goats beings goats, the trails they leave can be difficult to follow if they tunnel under bushes or hop over boulders. Will be keeping an eye on this thread myself.
