Getting warm

Along with the warmer weather comes the dangers of running dogs. We’ve been fortunate in not finding many ticks this year. Also there is plenty of water for the dogs, so we don’t have to pack to much to keep the canine partners from over heating. I’ve also heard a few tales of seeing snakes, but fortunately for us the snakes are pretty much still in their dens.

It won’t be long though. Here’s an aggressive rattler not to happy with me bothering it and four other rattlers just outside of their den.

It’s still a lot of fun being on the mountain but it’s close to time for watching where you go.
