Today we did a half day hike starting at the South Boulder Creek trailhead to the Blue Stem and then up and over the South Mesa. It had rained a lot last night so the colors were bright and fresh this morning. It was blue sky and sunny until we got up high and into the clouds. Sage and Summit are crashed out at my feet - two very tired Border Collies.

What a beautiful walk for you all, the landscape is stunning. Jimmy looks great too, a very handsome BC.
Gorgeous pictures. Your puppies look so happy. We're going to try some of too this summer.
The dogs love going for hikes. I feel very lucky to live in such a beautiful part of the States and that my dogs can run around off-leash and enjoy being... just dogs.
I agree...when I look at your blog, I'm envious of all your hiking photos. What a beautiful place, and what lucky dogs. I'll have to get out there some time.
