Bridal Veil Falls – Summer
Cappie’s Scoop: I’ve hiked here in the summer and winter. If you want to see pictures of the winter hike, check out Bridal Veil Falls – Winter. I’m a water dog so any trail with water, I’m there! Don’t hesitate to add YOUR scoop in the…
Yosemite National Park – Glacier Point
Amanda & Ippo’s Scoop: In October 2019 we decided to celebrate Ippo’s Barkday in style! So we packed up the car and took a road trip from SoCal to visit Yosemite. It was a trip to remember – the views were gorgeous and we…
Bear Mountain
Cappie’s Scoop: This is one of my favorite hikes not only because the views are amazing but the rocks are RED just like me! And I get to climb a lot of rocks. The trail climbs and climbs with a few trees to hide…
Old Caves Crater Summit

Pine Mountain Loop

Ruby Lake
Cappie’s Scoop: It’s so cool to have an alpine lake all to yourself and go swimming in it! A lot of hoomans and dogs were hiking towards Gem Lakes but this time mom and I took a right turn at the junction and headed…
Convict Lake
Cappie’s Scoop: This hike was torture for me! Not because it’s too long, too steep or too rocky. It’s because the trail circles all the way around and the lake and I couldn’t jump in the water at all! I kept trying to take…
