Dog lake hike

Yesterday Tracy and I got up early and braved the crowds up Milcreek Canyon. We took the dogs and hiked up to dog lake. It was Aydens first time in the baby back back and he wasn't to thrilled about getting strapped into another seat but about 10 feet up the trail he went quiet and didn't make a peep the for the entire 4 hour journey. He loved it. As you can see this is us on the way up the trail and he is wide eyed and bushie tailed.
He we are up the trail about a mile and well as you can see hiking is hard work!

He we are at the lake, there were so many dogs and Tracy's dogs Dakota and Leo love to swim so Ayden had tons of fun watching them. Joylin one of the riders at the barn is a trail runner and she was up there to. Her dog Brooklyn tail lashed us in the face with a wet tail and Ayden just smiled. He is a pretty easy going baby.


Here is Ayden getting ready to have his diaper changed on the grass, it was pretty rocky underneath him but he didn't even care.


Ok and here is Tracy after about an hour of throwing the stick for her wet dogs. Lets just say her getting wet was not her option. Oh did I mention Dehle came to, she was very excited for about the first 3/4 of the hike and then just settled into the back of the line, plodding up the hill. She will get her feet wet but is not a swimmer. She enjoyed rolling around in the grass more.



The leaves were such a great color, I had to throw one scenic picture in :)

Ayden is such a cutie. He looks a lot like his mom. I can't believe how fast he is growing up. SItting up already that's amazing. Both my girls where slow at everything. Maybe my boy will be different. Looks like you have been having a fun time doing things I would love to be doing. Well, the hiking at least. YOu know I can do without horses : )
