Your Mountain Dog · Apr 22 by Kurt Peterson

We all know this is the time of year to start getting out to hike, run, climb, and paddle. My hope is that you’re also thinking the same thing for your canine companions that happily follow us up any trail, river, and sometimes rock.


So we’re throwing out a call for pictures of your lovable mountain dog. You know—the furry love of your life that goes with you everywhere, that shakes with excitement when the pack comes out or jumps in the car every time you open the door, just to go somewhere, anywhere with you.

We’ll award the best mountain dog photo with a FREE piece of dog gear appropriate for your dog’s favorite sport. Email me here with your entry by no later than May 4th.

I’ve included one of my favorites of Kona to get the inspirational ball rolling.
