 | Dog-Related Notes: |
Very aggressive dog off leash ahead of owners… dog was barking, growling, bluff charging 4 ft in front of me… seemed like forever for owner to grab dog and leash it. If it wasn’t for my hiking poles in it’s face I’m pretty sure it may have bitten me. I let owners know how uncool it was…. I got the Ol’ “ I didn’t think anyone else was out here excuse “ Uhmmm…. Other cars in the parking lot didn’t give you a clue? Very irresponsible. |

Great hike up to Wheeler Mountain and it’s ledges. Went all the way to Eagle rock….. very steep…. May want to keep pets leashed around cliffs…. Besides nerve racking dog incident, it was a great hike. Great maintenance on trail with easy to follow blazes. |
