17th February
Broke camp this morning and after 15 minutes hit on to fresh lone wolf tracks. The wolf trail was heading our way so it was easy work for Piper just to follow.
 
The wolf footings were frozen hard and its striding gait was longer than any dogs'.
 
We made camp in good light after 5pm. I was pleased to get a warm meal inside the dogs. They soon lifted when they heard me pull down my tent zipper.
