How did your kennel get its name?
How did you get started running dogs?
Trapping in Northern BC, as a kid, got a dog team for that and then started racing as a young teen
What do you love most about dog sledding?
Its traditional values of travelling the Yukon and the history behind it. The connection you have with your team, the competitive aspect and travelling these remote places in the dead of winter.
Please share any interesting stories or facts about your dogs that will be running in the 2024 race:
My dogs are characters for sure. Either just being goofy in the dog yard or leading you through a storm, they are always there with a positive attitude and ready to go!
Are you a member of any other organizations in sled dog sports?
No
