I don’t think I deviated much for the standard approach, if at all.
I think I may have the tracks, I believe I have my trip on Strava.
Im glad I did it, but I was super worried about Kiba going up and coming down. Perhaps only for a short section, but it was stressful. I’m definitely by far not the only person to take my dog up there, and after this I got Kiba a proper climbing harness. Just fyi. But happy to share whatever I got.
