| Dog-Related Notes: |
Table Rock proper may not be a good place for some dogs, as it would be very easy to get too close to the edge of the knife edge and fall off on the smooth rock. |

| Comments: |
Trail up from the notch is relentlessly steep (about 600 vertical in .3 mile). Walk out to Table Rock is not recommended for those who have issues with heights - it's bascially a ~5-10 foot wide knife edge with massive drops on either side. Wind gusts from the notch didn't help. Views were spectacular. A shame to see the grand hotel and nearby ski area closed for another winter season. |
