Jefferson Park-In
80⁰F day in Portland, trail was probably 65⁰F. Dyno absolutely overheated, and his paws got burned. We had to stop and rest so many times. Russell Creek wasn't too bad to cross, but trickier with Dyno. We crossed lower down from trail amd then it was hard to climb out of the canyon. Dyno almost gave up, he was so exhausted and sore. He seems fine at camp now. He's laying down, but awake. He's hoping for treats.
Jefferson Park-out
Dyno absolutely died. Way too hot and his pads got torn up :-(
