Mrs. Jeffo and I took the mutts on an overnighter backpack in the Mill Creek Wilderness- about 3.5 miles each way, plus a few more miles of hiking around. It was to get her a little acclimated to some altitude, and a shakedown for all her new gear (in related news, REI reported record profits in June 2017) that she's been buying for her week-long pack in NoCal next week. It was also a test of her bum knee and to a lesser extent my PF foot. Both held up ok. LOVE my new Soloman Quest boots. I was rockin' my trusty old Dana Arcflex pack... she has all this fnew ancypants ultralight gear. I was definitely jealous of her thermarest NeoTek. I'm still rocking (haha) a gen 2 (big valve) thermarest from the late 80's.
Gorgeous country, I'll see if any of my mutt pics came out worth sharing. So happy my foot held up.
