What do you love most about dog sledding?

Share the efforts with them

Please share any interesting stories or facts about your dogs that will be running in the 2024 race:

They are all yearlings, roughly same age. So far loose training, we will see on the line…

Are you a member of any other organizations in sled dog sports?

The goal is to have some fun and give the dogs some experience for faster, longer distance races. Maybe a 1,000 mile in the Yukon…

No music. I listen to dogs breathing and what’s going on around me in the bush.

How did your dogs get their names?

Chose with the kids from the movie Ice Age

Share a quick story about one of your indispensable handlers:

No handler so far, but looking for one for the logistics.
