Housesit at Driggs ID and a BIG dog walk

We accepted a housesit in Driggs ID because it is a great place to have a base to fish from... as there are a ton of opportunities within 15-60Mins.

We are charged with 2 golden retrievers (Taku and Cache) and 3 cats (Tazzie, Zoey, and Mooch). All animals have already proven to be very well trained and easy to deal with. The first task of all housesits is to develop a bond with the animals, especially the dogs. So how to do that, BIG DOG WALK.

This time out on the Sheep Bridge Trail outside of Alta WY, just outside of Alta.

Great hike among field of flowers and along the Teton Creek, --- which due to the recent rains, it running VERY high.

This area around Driggs, and the broader basin, offer up great views of the "backside" of the Tetons.

A little side stream to start of the 4 mile hike.
