The weather man predicted a low of 21 and a high of 50 with a combination of rain and snow. That forecast was for the town of Field, B.C. (over 2000 ft. below where Brooks and Sierra were camping for three days). We got our first two snow falls of the summer and a nice dusting of freezing rain. In all, we logged over 35 miles of back country trails in three days and got to spend some quality daddy/doggy time along the way.In hindsight, Brooks made only one costly mistake during their time on the trail. Against his instincts, he decided to carry 10 hot dogs and two pounds of beef jerky for Sierra in lieu of his normal dog food. That lapse in good judgement, resulted in the dog having the worst gas of all time. And to make matters worse, Sierra broke trail every day and occupied half of the duo's small tent each night. On the bright side, maybe it kept the bears away at least?
