Not many pups today. I imagine that is because of the cave & ladder routes. I’d say the route we took would be fine for a fit dog ready for easy scrambles. |

 | Comments: |
What a day of ominous looking clouds to hike these two peaks. Set out with the purpose of checking of these trails without the ladder or caves. Since the alternative trail on Percival requires scrambling we decided to go counterclockwise to ascend the scramble and descend the more gradual Mount Morgan Trail. The scramble was short and sweet. If you plan on bypassing the ladders & caves I’d recommend going up & down this way. All in all, a great day to be enjoying nature. |
