Dog-Related Notes: My leashed dog had a blast. There are 2 scramble spots right before the summit of Owl’s Head that are worth noting. My husky did it but it’s a little challenging. 
Bugs
Bugs: Brought a bug net and didn’t use it. Bug spray seemed to be enough but I swatted a few on the way down, way less buggy than I planned for.
