Moved to Utah a few months ago and Rudi has proven himself to be a reliable and capable mountaineer. He's a bit of a baby when it comes to camping so he gets a down sleeping bag in the car at night, but once the sun comes up he's up for some serious hiking and scrambling. The best part is he sleeps for at least a day after long hikes

Great photos - i bet you had a tired dog after that. I really miss hillwalkiing with a dog, cant wait til Keely's old enough to take her up the hills, although i'm not sure i could trust her on some of the exposed routes that your boy seems to take in his stride

I love watching ours' run up and down the hills in our forest. There are times, though, when I have to close my eyes watching them jump down some rocky descents. Awesome pix of Rudi.

Beautiful! I think I would be a basket case on terrain like that with Bella. She thinks she is a mountain goat/antelope/fish... As someone else mentioned, I also have to close my eyes or look the other way often in hills lol. He looks proud of his feat!

great pictures, and I think it makes hiking so much more enjoyable when you have your dog with you!!! Our Luna LOVES hiking too, she knows it the second the hiking boots and trekking poles or snowshoes come out and its impossible to not take her along

Lovely pictures! I first got into shorthairs as hiking companions, and have hiked with them tons of times in the mountains of CO. In fact we leave for Lake City, CO this Saturday for a week of hiking and fishing. SomedaybI hope to hike in Utah. I love the skiing there.

wow lot of responses! thanks for the nice remarks So I read a while ago when researching the breed "do well on rough terrain" - most times he does better than me ; ) Gl on your trip to CO TB, sounds like a great time! A week or two of goating around a big range sounds fantastic.
