I had a four day weekend. Tahoe, Traci, and I backpacked 26 miles on the Highline Trail. We hiked from the Pine Trailhead to the Geronimo Trailhead and back.












There were wild raspberries along the creek.















This is the view from Red Rock Spring where we camped the first night.













We saw several tarantulas.












Our camp site the second night.













These are wildflowers at Dude Creek where we camped the third night.












White and red sandstone cliffs.










The trail was so overgrown that we had a difficult time staying on it. It was much easier on the way back because Tahoe knew the way and guided us quickly.










This is my new friend. I also saw three javelina, deer, and a giant bull elk with impressive antlers. Luckily, I saw the elk before Tahoe, so I put him on his leash. He went bonkers when he heard it running away.










This is an action shot of Tahoe leaping off a log and over a small creek.









Traci is climbing over one of the many fallen trees on the trail.
