Swiss "Hill" Dog

Katahdin enjoyed his first hike up Great Blue Hill today. He impressed us with his natural climbing ability! He met lots of other hikers and dogs, enjoyed the view of Boston from the observatory and burrowed under a pine tree for a little rest at the end of the hike.

"Let's go!"


Checking out the trail map



Katahdin sprinted up the hill for the first couple hundred yards - very excited!



Stopping for some water and a great view





We reached the sumit! Checking out the view of Boston from the observatory (although Katahdin couldn't see over the railing)



Taking a break on the cool stone floor

My, what a long tounge you have

Beginning our decent





200 yards from the bottom of the hill, Katahdin felt the need to rest. He burrowed under a pine tree and didn't get up for 5 minutes.



All done!
