You can but it could cause issues out there. The guy that stays at the top of Moose told me a few years ago that a cougar came out of nowhere and got someone's small dog and took off right near where he stays. A couple of times I have had people approach me in the parking lot stating they had lost their dogs as they took off into the trees. It is a big area so as long as you trust your dog to stay close to you and it is a bigger dog it could be ok. Other issues could be biker/dog issues as many of them don't seem to like the bear bells or other noises from bikes and known to get snarly over it. When I am out there my dog is always on a leash for sure!
