Hiking the PCT Rain and Nasty Weather
If you like hiking with dogs then Washington State can be as awesome place to do that. However, it can be a challenge as well. Heavy weather systems can destroy those plans. Much like it did to our plans to hike the "K" section of the PCT in Washington with my son Jesse and my Cattledog Gus.
Please leave a comment below if you have any tips on how to hike with dogs.....
