Coop had a great time meeting all of them and walking through all the mud on the trail, he needed a good cleaning at the end. Plenty of water from mountain streams (or trickles) for doggies to refresh themselves.

Comments
Comments: Lots of people out enjoying the mountains today. Several hikers made their way up in the dark hoping to get a glimpse of the sunrise, however the cloud cover blocked all views. Clouds seemed to dissipate later reveling visibility for miles.

Trails were in great shape, running water over small patches and mud in sections mostly avoidable; especially near the Osceola summit & between the peaks, these areas may be more difficult to pass through w/o getting a stepping in at least once.
