Miller Peak Loop 2011-10-08

From reading kuresman.com, Miller Peak loop is one of his favorite hike.  So I decided to do the loop.  We have a new foster, Champ.  He has been hiking last 2 weeks, and hopefully he would enjoy the hike.

Champ had a wonderful time.  He relied on Blue's lead.  He will be a fine hiker.

I checked off the Miller Peak and moved to the Do Not Repeat list.  The trail is shared by humans, horses, motor cycles, and cattle.  There were so many piles of big dark green pudgy piles of cattle poop up to about 5,000 foot elevation.  It is unavoidable to step on the poop.  No wonder there were no hikers.  On the way back, 2 herds of black cattle were ahead of us.  So Blue had to stay behind me, and of course Champ was on a leash but trying to herd the cattle.
