Porkies spring adventures, day III

This is Saturday of the Memorial weekend and we'll see plenty of people out here today.  We do like to see people and mutts!

Experienced trail mutts like to roll in the morning sun.

Another fine day to be a trail mutt and in the woods.
Cabin coffee is good for the 2 legged members.

This is the Little Carp and we seen lots of Steelhead trout in it.

They again made me swim across.

And again.  Ya it's scary, but I am a strong, strong swimmer.

While older mutts just take the bridge.

Now we head out to a cabin about 4 miles west of us.

This is one of the many bridges we'll cross today on this
 lake shore hike.

And another.

Oh good! Another cool creek to rest in.  No bridge here.

The 2 legged ones found this one deep, and a challenge to cross.

We made it to Speaker cabin!
 It was empty, so ate lunch on the steps.

We've stayed here in the past.  It's a nice location.

Now on our way back. Here we refilled water containers
for the two legged members.  We just drink from streams.

The lake shore has many wet areas and board walks to use.

Later we met some friendly hikers!
They're heading to Speaker's cabin.

And later, more hikers and mutts yet!

Oh ya, they can touch us some.  We do like that.

The mutts have already crossed and wonder why 2 leggeds
remain on the other side.

Now we're almost back to our cabin.

This bridge is about gone.
Our parks just don't have the money to fix things.

Coyote prints?  Wolf?   Or maybe just a trail mutt.

After a little break, we decided to romp over to see
 some of the Big Carp.

We hiked up to Shining Cloud Falls then turned back.

Oh, we met many friendly hikers on this trail!

Again on Lake Superior trail.

Yet more friendly back packers.
They were camped near us, just across us the little carp river.

Now we relax back at our cabin.

Yes, even puppies eventually wear out and need to relax too.

After supper we took one more stroll to view Little Carp river.

We had such a nice day and the sun goes down across
 the big lake.
