Hiking: Passion Taking Control

 Over the last two weeks I have taken to the hills almost every afternoon.  102 miles of trails in the hills and valleys that surround our city.
 Since I was 25 years old, I have been determined to have a new "adventure" each and every year of my life. 
 My next "adventure" is taking on the first half of the Tahoe Rim Trail in July of 2013.  This will be the California side.  In 2014, I'll finish off the Nevada side.  174 miles of High Sierra peaks, valleys and alpine meadows in total.
 To be ready to tackle this challenge, it will take months of conditioning for both the dogs and me.  
These pictures were taken on a Saturday 12 mile hike in Briones Regional Park last weekend.

Lovely hounds. We have a Vizsla called Jura, just featured him in my latest blog and that got me hunting for other Vizsla bloggers.

Heather, Welcome to RBD. I believe the number 1 blog on Vizslas. Could be wrong. Enjoy sharing our adventures and what we learn.
