First camping trip of the season in the Lost Creek Wilderness. Not exactly the spectacular alpine scenery of our usual trips, but the snow is still pretty deep at high elevations, so this is a good early season destination, known for its interesting rock formations. It's also pretty accessible to the front range population centers, meaning that it was a lot more crowded than our usual trips. That's a plus as far as Max is concerned ... more people = more friends.
We have had an early monsoon season this year and the creeks are running very high, so the highlight of the trip was Max doggie-paddling his way across waist-high fast-running water still wearing his pack. Unfortunately, I was busy making my own way across and did not capture a photo. My previous dogs were not such strong swimmers and always needed encouragement to cross, so I figured I would cross to the other side and then call him. But he is very confident in the water and followed right behind me, so when I turned around, there he was.

Been quite some time since I have posted here. Felt the need to post Mango hanging with S峄璦. Classic馃榾 Can only imagine the conversation.
Ha ha my friend just sent me this saying he had a great cat photo he forgot I sent it to him when the brothers were still under 1 year old.
Superb photo - so placid, so disturbing...
