ANCHORAGE, ALASKA, USA

I always wanted to try a dog sled in Alaska, but heard that the romantic notion of them cruising over the snow was interrupted by the reality that the dogs poop was flung back at you, as they raced! So this outing seemed perfect, an elevated sled and they advertised puppies! This devoted couple were truly passionate about their business. His great grandfather was involved in the evolution of the Iditarod and it has been the family's business for years. They have 15 dogs of their own, he does the racing, she does the training.

We met at Tozier track and their office also serves as the museum to all things Iditarod.

Enjoyed the sled dog ride with (L to R ) Paul, Holly and David.
