   If you and Fido are looking for some pawtastic hiking, take Millcreek Canyon Road from East Millcreek and go exploring in this vast wilderness area. Travel along Rattlesnake Gulch on the Pipeline trail, or down into Thayne Canyon from this entry point. Your pooch may join you in your adventures as long as you keep clear of the watershed areas and clean up any waste. If you wander off the trails, your canine companion must be on a leash at all times. On the trails, dogs need to be leashed on even-numbered days but are allowed to accompany you off leash on odd-numbered days. Make sure you stay alert for wilderness hazards like snakes and rockfalls.
