Millcreek Hike

Our first Millcreek adventure this year didn't quite go as planned... starting off with running a little behind getting to the canyon and then finding out that 4 miles up the canyon, a gate is closed until July. Worst part was that the trailhead for Dog Lake is approximately 9 miles up the canyon which meant we would need to hike 5 miles up the road to just to reach the trailhead! Ya... that didn't happen. My parents and I decided to hike up until something looked promising. About 1 1/2 - 2 miles up the road, we came across a no-named trail that looked like a good idea (shady and uninhabited). The climb was steep but it sure was beautiful. We didn't make it too far up the trail before heading back but I was able to steal a few photos of Enzo on his adventure. Oh - and the little blue ACD (Australian Cattle Dog) is Sophie, my parents new pup. This was her first hiking adventure and she was a champ but boy was she tired by the end!
