More pictures of my Running Buddy in the Snow.

















Here are a few additional pictures of my Running Buddy. Nothing more beautiful than a Black Lab at play. If anyone wants a picture that can be framed, send me your contact info. to mikefitzsimmons@comcast.net I will contact you and find out what size or sizes you need. I can make a frame but I am not ready to do that as I would rather spend my time in the mountains.
There is usually a good frame shop not far from where you live.
I have a lot more photos that make a good scene above the fireplace.


Good Day in the Sun

Wallace and I left on a beautiful sunny morning and went snowshoeing. Wallace did not have his shoes on as he prefers to swim in the powder. We left on the Dry Creek Trail head at the top of Alpine. It is a rather steep incline but a great snowshoeing trail. We made it to the upper camp above the shelf and falls.
I will post more pictures of Wallace in the snow.

Can't Sleep This Morning



Sunday night is my night off. I do not work until Monday night. So after working all night thru the week I cannot sleep at night on my day off. So what a better thing to do. I woke up at 4:00am after tossing and turning all night and took my running partner up to 7000 feet and went snowshoeing. We left the Pine Hollow Trail head and headed up to the Ridge trail. This is the old Wasatch Trail when it finished at Sundance. 17 degrees plenty cold. I was hoping for a red sunrise on the North Column of Timp but did not happen. Just a cold wind at the top.
My running partner loved swimming thru the deep powder. He is now soaking up the sun on the back patio.

Dogs never "DOG" you and don't show up on a cold winter morning jaunt.
