I've done Baldy several times in different seasons but never on the Bear Canyon/Mt. Baldy Trail.
Which is the reason for this post.
I have a 100-pound Alaskan Malamute who is built for snow.
Are there any sections on this route where he could get into trouble or, because he'll be on a retractable leash, get me into trouble?
Specifically, I'm wondering if there are any ridges with steep drop-offs where he could fall and need to be hauled back up--assuming he didn't take me with him.
Also, is the snow so deep right now that he'd be post-holing?
Thanks for the help.
