Trail Food

Laying fresh tracks along the Blue River Recreation Path from Breckenridge to Frisco as we entertain the cars on Highway 9 along the way :)

Skijoring from Breckenridge to Frisco along the rec path is always very fun as Jack & Rudy have lots of opportunities to floor it and entertain the crowds we see along the way. 

Today, though, had an extra treat along the way: fresh frozen deer leg (with some meat still intact)!!!

"Yum, yum!" says Rudy taking a taste of deer of the leg we found in the snow.
"Rolling in deer juice while nibbling on the leg is the best!" adds goofy Jack.

Whenever I encounter animal parts on the trail, I will toss them off trail to be nice to others. Jack & Rudy are always perplexed at my decision to "lift & toss" the animal parts. They start out convinced I am lifting it for them and then are dismayed when I toss the piece of carcass off the trail. See for yourself:

"Yum! Thanks for picking it up!" declares deer tasting Jack.
"Nice! Bring it a little closer please!" adds 'ready to chomp' Rudy.

After getting some pretty astonished looks when I tossed the leg off trail, it was time to restart skijoring again. Nothing like a wide open perfect trail to refocus speedy Jack & Rudy back to skijoring instead of snacking on trail food :)

Zipping along laying fresh tracks as we skijor along the shores
of Lake Dillon.

But then, just as we are over the "trail treats", we encounter the stables as we transition from the recreation path and into the trails of the Frisco Adventure Park. More trail food?

"Those burros & horses look yummy too!" suggests Jack.
"Na, too far away, let's keep going!" adds 'less distracted' Rudy.

And here we go, skijoring along the rec path and into the adventure park and then on by the (very distracting) stables. Good 'on by' Jack & Rudy! Come along and watch the fun:

Another fun, fun day to report to our favorite retired mentor, Zorro:

"You have my full attention!" says focused Zorro.
"King of the Mountain!" declares silly Jack.
"Chilling back here; how about more deer meat?" asks Rudy.
