And just a friendly reminder to pack out what you pack in. There's so many people around here that will bag up after their dogs and just toss it beside the trail, it's just brutal.
This behaviour has always baffled me.

It's more work then just leaving it on the ground, and worse for the environment and other people using the trails. Some french showers in Fish Creek will even take the time to tie the bag of **** to a branch. Like a trophy.
