Hike on the Pacific Crest Trail

On Sunday ffluffy and kiltman and some dogs and I went hiking on the PCT off San Fransquito Canyon Road. The trail started off steep, then leveled out somewhat, then went up and down a bit. We hiked for around 4 hours. No ticks and no snakebites, although there was a snake on the trail. It was not poisonous but none of the dogs saw it. Apparently none of the dogs could even smell it because we attempted to point it out to them in a hopes to teach them snakes= bad, but we could tell none of the dogs realized it was a critter. Strange.




A steep section. Hunda is behind Fancy.



ffluffy, km, Wiggn, and Pickle.


Fancy the trail dog- before the shave.




I kept moving Fancy so she could be in the picture, but Pie still blocked her. Bad Pie. Pie carried the water for the dogs.


The dogs found some water trickling down a rock and dug a hole to drink it easier. Smart dogs. There was a large beehive in these rocks, so we couldn't stay too long.





The trail. You can also see it on the mountain on the left. This was on the way back. I like how you can see the hiking stick in the photo. (Thanks Dad, for letting me borrow yours.)


Pie always enjoys a hike.

It was a nice hike but was getting warm at the end. Dottie did not get to come because here feet were still sore from playing in the watering hole last weekend.


And here is naked Fancy. She got that string on her face by rolling around on the blanket. I did not put it here.

Nice hiking stick. I especially like the Big Bear badge on it!

Looks like the trail is in good shape and a fun time was had by all. Is that a kilt that I see?
