I was up on Adams today and a couple of folks came up to the summit with backpacks and a live dog on the back of one of the backpacks.They had a folded up ridgerest attached to the bottom of the pack acting as a shelf with the dog sitting on the ridge rest laying against the backpack. They also had a strap behind the lower back of the dog. The dog seemed quite happy on a hot day to be riding along. I think I heard them say it was a five year old Samoyed pekinese mix.They had driven 14 hours to get here from where ever they came from and the trails were too rough for the dog so the choice was rig up something to take the dog along or go home. Definitely a initial doubletake as it looked like a stuffed dog.
