Four years old, one very good nose, and a habit of finding the best switchback in Boulder County.
Trail Log
Meet the Dog
Charlie showed up at the shelter in 2020 with burrs in his coat and about six months old. Four years and roughly four hundred trail miles later, he's the reason we hike every weekend instead of just some of them.
He knows the difference between a real hike and a walk around the block, and he lets us know it at the front door. Scroll through his gallery, read about his bigger trips, or come find him on Saturday mornings.

A running log of the trails, creeks, and switchbacks he's talked us into. New entries most weekends, March through November.
Chautauqua Loop
Charlie caught wind of something in the scrub oak and would not let it go. Turned out to be a very unimpressed deer.

Sanitas Valley
Charlie treats every creek like it's the first one he's ever seen. This one gets a full ten minutes, every time.

Betasso Preserve
We started at six to beat the mountain bikers. Charlie was ready at five thirty, sitting by the door with his leash in his mouth.
