This helps them simmer down from twisting their harnesses into worse knots.No sooner than Arik mentions trouts, the others dogs – Mercy, Nomad, Sesi, and Sisu all start whining about getting Kodiak started on trout again. Kodiak pants, big eyes scanning Arik's face then giving a long whine, "<Garret up. Horned big person up. Both west."> He barks toward a steeper ascent (left on attached map above). <"Horned big person clawed Garret and pulled him off sled. Trout. Garret up. West. Big stinky person? He smells like fish guts, always eating fish guts that smell old, growling like bear, and making happy mouth sounds.>" With an abashed look down, Kodiak murmurs, "Barrrr-kh awr trwrr-wrr-wrr " The dog's eye twitches, though it's hard to tell if that was some snow in his eye or he's fighting the urge to say 'trout' again.[GM]Exactly <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> Btw, if you unharness the dogs, you could direct them down the mountain and they'll safely find their way to your camp with Eve & Keegan. No need for any of you to descend with them. Corse and Arik would be familiar with the ability of sled dogs to track by scent, so they'd pick up the smell of Keegan's dogs with whom they're familiar.[/GM]</blockquote>
