Jackson Branch-Dog Friendly?: Webster-Jackson Trail

[Solitary Hiker]

I'm thinking of doing the Webster-Jackson loop (summit Mt. Jackson first) and have read that there's some scrambling up the Mt. Jackson summit. Can anyone tell me if this is do-able for most dogs? I have 2 very agile Siberian Huskies but thought I'd ask.

Thanks.

As long as they're reasonably agile it should be no problem. Minor scrambling with only one real trouble spot. My small dog has no problem. I usually find in spots like this that the dog has already found a way to the top before I get there.

I've taken two separate dogs up there without issue. I suppose a small dog might, but it's really nothing much

We've taken our neighbors 2 Goldens up there several times - there are a few spots we had to assist them.

I've only done Jackson with my dog and there was really only one trouble spot for her just below the summit where I had to help her. I think you should be fine with huskies - maybe bring a harness just in case. I'll defer to others on the rest of the loop.
