Dog-Related Notes
Dog-Related Notes: Although some dogs can/have handled Huntington's without issue, I would be wary of taking a less-hardened and experienced mountain dog on it. We saw none until we were on the descent on Tuckerman Ravine Trail. Besides the steepness itself, there are few water opportunities once you get up high.

Comments
Comments: Perfect day for this hike! Some clouds, some sun. Once we got onto the boulders and above that, the rocks were dry. About a gazillion (give or take) people on the summit. A great group came together for this hike, led by Becca and Jim. Thanks to all for a great day out!
