Duncan and I stupidly headed for Dewey Lakes today. Both the WTA website and the Best Hikes with Dogs book list it as OK for dogs. Oops. Dogs are allowed on only the first half of the trail. The rest of the trail passes through National Park Service land. No dogs allowed.
We followed what appeard to be a game trail that stayed in the William O. Douglas Wilderness Area, but it petered out before we made it to the lake, so we turned around and went home. It was already 89 degrees at 9 a.m., so that was probably for the best. Yesterday Duncan got a rather severe haircut to keep him cool, but the poor guy was still really hot.
The wildflowers are going insane up there right now, so it was worth it in spite of the fact that we did not reach the lakes.
