What a lovely morning with my family and the Gallatin Valley
Veterinarian Support Group out on Pete's Hill in Bozeman, Montana. We
did this hike just before Christmas, 2023.This
is a great little hike that's almost right in town. You could walk from
much of the Bozeman lodging and hotels. It's steep-ish, but not too
bad. You can make it a short hike or extend almost as long as you like
to different trails in town called Highway to the Mountains. And it's
dog-friendly (as you can see, we brought ours.)We cut ours a little short when we found a friend's dog who'd gotten out and was about 9 blocks from their home.And
Jamie, my wife, a.k.a. Dr. Arndt, is a Veterinarian in town and started
a support group for area Veterinarians. Their profession suffers from
abnormally high rates of depression, drug abuse and suicide due to the
high demands physically, mentallly, and emotionally on them. The
Gallatin Valley Veterinarian Support Group hold events like these to
bring local veterinarians together to share struggles and build
community.If you're a veterinarian in the Gallatin Valley area, I recommend popping over to the Facebook Group page to join. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1498119201004250 Next
time, I think we'll do a skinning, snowboard and snowshoe trip to the
South Bridger Mountains which is basically out my front door. Get in
touch if there are trails I absolutely cannot miss in Bozeman or the
Gallatin Valley. Thank you for listening!
