 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Our three active dogs - lab/collie mutt, coonhound/lab mutt, westie - loved this route. It did include the South Slide, but they had ZERO problems. The Westie wanted a lift over a few bigger rocks when she was unsure of her footing due to the loose gravel, but the two big dogs just hopped their way up the South Slide. As a nervous pup parent, and always taking the safest route, I was cautious, but NOT nervous on this slide. The rest of the route was super easy for them! |

I loved this hike! Somehow, missed the memo that the Tri's were viewless, so I didn't take enough photos from the slide itself (which had a great view of Waterville Valley). Just a reason to go back and do it again. The first three miles (Livermore Road) were exactly that, a flat road that we plowed through in 45 minutes. Then a mild ascent to the slide. Slide was about a half mile steep, gravely slide, so we took our time. I actually enjoyed this slide, unlike most. Then the traverse between the peaks were flat and easy. We AVOIDED North Slide (as I think most pup parents should), and took Pine Bend down. It wasn't technical, just a bit ROOTY and a few boulder to squeeze down, so we took our time so not trip up on stuff. Scaur and Livermore were very flat trails that we jogged down. Then the repeat 3 miles down Livermore Road were a brisk walk/jog to get back to the car. |
