I was a college student who wanted a dog. Found one online and went to pick her up at a mushers house. He invited me for a sled dog ride, had me in the runners a mile in, and it's all history from there.

Hallucinating tree houses and bridges during a race. Last year in the forest during the UP I swear I could hear people talking.

I originally got into mushing from being a race volunteer at the Sawbill checkpoint at the Beargrease. To add to the excitement from that experience, my wife/kennel manager Cristen and I stayed with Deke Naaktgeboren on our honey moon where Deke gave us our first four sled dogs.

Last year's race was interesting.....broke the sled at the starting chute, dog team went off a small bridge, crashed into a snow machine in the middle of the trail. Could it have been worse - I doubt it.

Great way to spend tie outside.

Every timeout on the trail is a new adventure. Great to be able to share time on the trails with the dogs.
