I had planned on hiking Dragon's Head & Bighorn in the San Gorgonio Wilderness (16 miles, ±5500 ft), but had to change plans last minute.
Friday I was told my dog and I are finalist for a sponsorship and they recommended we submit a video. So my wife and I paid for a babysitter and headed to Keller Peak to shoot some footage. We had fun breaking out our old video stuff and my wife and I hiked together (without our son) for the first time in 3-4 years!
You can see a short trip report, photos and a video here:

What? The fam wasn't up for D'head and Bighorn? Just little molehills.

Cool pix. Hope your dog gets sponsored.

Thanks HJ. I think that would've been the first hike in 3 years... and the last for at least 10

Thanks! Since the url is so long through kurgo, I just created an page that shows the kurgo page in a frame. I think the short URL works better for social media.

Nicely done, Chevy.
You win no matter what, with such glorious family hiking times.
btw I would say no way is Riley a cur, but he sure can go.
(now for a movie link, for Ellen, by way of Elmore Leonard and Roy Scheider, may they RIP: 52 *ahem* Pick-up)
