Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Make sure your dog can handle a 4K hike, a winter hike, and bring water. Everything is frozen. Crawford path is a great way to step up your dog to a 4K without too much vertical gain.

Comments
Comments: It's been a long time... Over a year since I visited a 4K in winter. Pierce was a good start and I hope to incorporate more 4K's into my exploring. Trail was good today. Well packed and I only used my spikes. If you do step off the monorail, you will sink in. I did once up to my hip. Temps and winds were perfect today.
