I am seen here with the only person we met on our hike of a Trapper Peak. Given his occupation I guess Jeff will have been somewhat busy these last few weeks. Working for the forestry service as a fireman can be an intense role in Montana.
A couple of weeks ago, Joan and I went to the Gordon Setter 2010 National Specialty in Greeley, CO. While there we linked up with Bill Stauder who is the breeder of our dog, Riley. Here, Riley's brother, Trapper, gives Bill some love. If you're interested, you can view all 429 (!) of my photo's from the show here

Trapper Peak is a mountain I have climbed on a couple of occasions. This view which was taken from the summit looks west across into Idaho and was taken ion my first ascent. The summit of Trapper at 10,157 is the high point in Montana of the Bitterroot Mountains. It's ascent route is varied and traverses a mix of terrain through forest, bypassing three lakes, some good scrambling and finally a high plateau just short of the summit ridge.
I had hiked with my pal Mike who stopped just short of the summit to look after Meggie his golden retriever. The terrain had become a little too awkward for her. For that a reason I was on my own on the summit and unable to add anyone to provide some scale to the scene. The ascent from the trailhead offered just under 4,000 of vertical gain.
I am happy to post my fifth shot of Trapper.
This lovely cat came in to my life while I was out birding on January 02, 2010. It was a very cold day. I drove up a dead end road bordering Elk Island National Park. At that point there is a rough trail leading to Trapper Lake. At the end of the road, I found this emaciated, filthy, and near dead cat at the bottom of a snow bank mewing pathetically.
I took her home and named her "Trapper" after the lake I found her near. She has turned out to be very friendly and affectionate. The vet thinks she is between 10 and 14 years old. Whatever her age, she is a fatter, furrier, and a much healthier cat now and is a good thing to come home to. She is a totally indoor cat and has never shown any interest in going outside.
At 10,157 feet Trapper Peak stands as the Montanan highpoint of the Bitterroot Mountains. I have travelled a good deal to Montana, a state that is chock full of stupendous mountains that just beg to be climbed, so far though Trapper Peak is the only sizeable one that I have returned to. So in a sense it is probably my favourite big hill within striking distance of Missoula.

You take the good along with the bad
Sometimes you're happy and sometimes you're sad
You know you love him, you can't understand
Why he treats you like he do when he's such a good man
This original log cabin was the first authorized post office in Mason County. It was originally a combination home and post office and was built as early as 1850. William Quevillon (Ku-vee-aw), who first came to this area as a trapper, built this cabin on one of his hunting trips. In 1852 Quevillon brought his wife and their four children on a horse drawn scow, along the beach from Grand Haven to this log cabin.
Quevillon was appointed postmaster in 1855 and served in that capacity for 18 years. Postage on a letter from Grand Haven to Fairview (located just south of here in those days) was 50 cents and mail was delivered four times a year!
This cabin was moved intact (minus the fireplace) to White Pine Village in 1968. The fireplace was rebuilt, using all local fieldstones.

A Httyd-themed Lego diorama featuring the Scauldron, a water-dragon that spits out boiling liquid.
A group of dragon trappers have caught an infant Scauldron, who cunningly decide to use it as bait to lure out it's mother. It worked, though not without having with drastic consequences towards for both the trappers and the enraged mother Scauldron.

Before anyone says it, yes, I'm a sad sadistic person for making such a traumatizing scene.
I wanted to make dragon trappers (like those seen from Httyd 2) in action, and got carried away and threw in a baby dragon at the last minute...
Anyway, I'll add more pics of the dragon and the infant later.
