Saw one dog hiking today. There are rocky sections and rock slabs, particularly on Winslow trail, but none are particularly steep or technical, so I'd imagine most dogs would manage just fine. |

Not many, some flies were buzzing around but they seemed harmless. |

 | Comments: |
Beautiful day to get in a small hike!
Winslow and Barlow trails are both in great shape. Winslow trail is steeper and has a lot of rock slabs and more rugged sections, so it would be more difficult in wet conditions, but still very doable with caution. |
