Went to do Mt Pierce (and maybe Mt Eisenhower) on Monday 1/16/06 with my wife and our Lab, CINDERSMOM and Cinder. Temp at the trail head was about 3 degrees with a strong wind. We never made it because Cinder started shivering and made it known she had enough and wanted to turn around. Cinder belongs to the 4K club so she's not a beginner. I also saw a post in the trail conditions forum where another couple turned back because of their 2 dogs. We came home and ordered a winter coat and neoprene booties for Cinder but are unsure if that's a good solution. We are wondering what others who hike with dogs do when the cold is extreme. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Joe
