Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Hannah and Chloe had a great weekend - we brought extra water for them, but there was enough water most of the way. It was a bit warm for them on the way down the ski slopes, but there were enough streams for them to take a drink and cool their paws. Some smaller less agile dogs may have difficulty on the scrambles heading up North Carter and on Wildcat Ridge Trail.

Comments: Great weekend traverse on the Carter Range - we didn't get rained on and it stayed decently cool. Plenty of friendly hikers out including a handful of northbound thru-hikers. Thanks Ali, Nikki, Hannah and Chloe for another epic adventure!!
