Temperatures are great for hiking, and we are making good time up the valley.
Dawg and I pose for a picture before continuing.

As the valley narrows and closes in on the creek, we are approaching the crossing point. This gets me wondering out loud about Dawg. You see, we went to this area last year, only last year we were traveling in the opposite direction in this valley. Even reversed, I recognize certain features that tell me where I am, and I tell Andra I see no reason Dawg wouldn't be even better at navigating the area based on memory. We'll soon have the full answer to whether Dawg is also navigating from memory before this day is done.
