Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: My dog needed a little lift up on the big boulder on the horn across the gap, but then when I was up there we saw there is a much better approach around the back and he was able to get down easily that way. Saw 4 other friendly pups who were all enjoying the day out hiking as well.

Comments
Comments: Great day out on the trails. Trails were in good shape, just a few minor mud patches obscured by leaves down low. Saw a decent number of people up around Cabot summit and a few taking the unknown pond route down and out from the york side, but the dog and I had the unknown pond trail to and from mill brook road all to ourself.
