Join the Paws & People crew for 2 full days of back country hiking with your dog in the spectacular mountains of SW Montana. We are looking at several locations in the Gallatin and Bridger ranges that will take us on 10-15 mile round trip hikes. All hikes will require both handlers and dogs to be in great hiking shape. These hikes are for those that crave being in the back country with their dogs. These hikes are sure to make for great photo opportunities.
