I had the honor and pleasure of accompanying 4 rangers from 1 Canadian Ranger Patrol Group just ahead of the teams last year. I have been a follower of the Yukon Quest for years and as such, it was an incredible opportunity to actually meet some of the mushers. It was an experience I'll never forget.
