Once Hyak is into the swing, dogs will be taboo just as at the other resorts.  Hyak_Jack and gravitymk had the basic rules of acceptance but I wish someone had mentioned the POOP. You need to pick it up and carry it away for proper disposal.  As a rescue dog handler I am constantly picking up the droppings from everyone else not just to set the example but to decrease the liklihood of a guest getting s_faced.
If I'm the one you encounter I try to be pleasant, but if you are ignoring the dooty, we have a problem. Thanks /G

Yes, if you have nothing to carry poop with at least move it out of the path of skiers if possible. If you figure, well it will be covered with snow that may be true now, but it all shows back up in the spring in full force and it can be nasty.

Thanks for the replies - good info. From one post I inferred that the nordic operation is running at Hyak this year, but only fri-sun and holidays. Correct? I had thought that the area was shut down completely this season, so good info. I'll take care of the poop, lest I arouse the wrath of Gib. Though the pooch stays on my heels most of the time, she does occasionally run out of sight, so she better not poop while I'm not looking, or it's no treats for her! :)

Anyway, she needs a little more training on staying away from ski edge, and I think Hyak might be a good place to practice with her.

You can just let her do her business in the parking lot. That's what all the cool snowboard dudes do with their dogs.
