    Mickey, Donald and Pluto

    Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Pluto climb a mountain. Actually Pluto isn't really climbing, he is hanging with a rope detached to the other two. When they are on the top all three find their own problems.

    This is a very nice short. Mickey has some trouble with eagles, Donald with a lamb and Pluto with another dog. Some things were really funny. I enjoyed this one very much.

    Mickey and Donald goes yodeling!

    This is one of the funnier cartoons from Disney, featuring Mickey, Donald and Pluto. They go mountain climbing in the Swiss Alps and find themselves dealing with a batch of misadventures: Mickey attempts to himself with some eagle eggs but meets up with an angry mother eagle instead; Donald has run-ins with a baby goat and his adult parent; and Pluto gets some buzzed fun with a St. Bernard.

    Donald gets edelweiss eaten by a mischievous little goat, but Mickey got his fair share of bad luck when a mother eagle and her just-batch eaglets storm around him. Pluto also gets plastered after a St. Bernard nurses him after his run-in with an annoying baby eagle. It's all tastefully done comedy that I've found myself laughing out loud a few times. Mickey and Donald belching out Swiss tunes at the beginning of the short was hilarious.

    My favorite scene is when Donald gets a rare last laugh of his own, when he gives a ramming goat a taste of his own medicine. Love this cartoon - one of the better ones!

    Very Funny!!

    One of Disney's funniest shorts. Highly recommend.

    Mickey, Donald and Pluto go climbing.

    We saw this cartoon at Disney Caribbean Beach recently and our 7 year old daughter loved it. We would love to get it on DVD or tape. The cartoon went round with some others in a loop and we looked forward to seeing this one every day. I and my husband also loved it. Very cleverly done and lovely cameos. Mickey who is leading the climb, starts yodelling, and Donald repeats the tune in his inimitable style. Nobody sings like Donald Duck! Pluto has to be hoisted up behind them, and is not amused. Usual trouble ensues. The trio are rescued by a St. Bernard. The rum barrel is emptied during the shenanigans and all are happy in the end!!!

    Typical Disney....

    I own all of the four films with Silly Symphonies and Micky Mouse. I found many of the short films to be masterpieces. They are all so very well-done and funny.

    This one is about Mickey,Donald and Pluto that is going to go out and climb a mountain. It's a hilarious little film with many funny things in it.
