Only extremely experienced, athletic mountain dogs should be doing this loop. Even those will need a boost in several spots on the ledges. dog should be comfortable on steep ledges and rock scrambles. Also several very steep scrambles on both sides of North Peak. |

Early bird gets the spider webs! Ate about a hundred today. trail was very dry and views were magnificent. Ledges on South Peak are really fun if you’re into that sort of thing. Lots of tricky scrambles. Chandler Gorge is a neat little spot, despite very little water in the Brook currently. Very rugged loop, one of my new favs. only saw a few people all day with the early start. |
