In preparation for our first race, the Sheep Mountain 150, we’ve been training in the hills around the kennel to get the dogs fit for climbing. Lucky for us, the steep hills get the mushers in shape too!

I apologize for the darkness of the video, but with the winter solstice fast approaching, we’re getting used to mushing in the dark!

    Whatever you've got now seems pretty good… Keep 'em rolling!!!
    One thought/idea… Camera mounted on the sled front shooting back at you… I think viewers would enjoy seeing your moves! I know I would!!!
