Chief Trail Officer
Autumn
Two years old. Mini Bernedoodle. Full-time trail guide and part-time troublemaker. Autumn joined Terrain Association T-Shirt Co. the day she figured out that boots by the door mean a mountain is involved. She has wanderlust in her bones — every crest, every paved loop, every muddy switchback gets the same full-throttle excitement — and she is at her happiest when someone is walking beside her.
Autumn spins in a circle and drops her paw on your boot.
