The four of us along with 24 canine companions are packing up ready to head to the North Slope area, about 400 miles north of the kennel.

This will be the “last hurrah” for us for this season and we’re excited to get out there in the arctic wilderness for a fun and relaxing trip before we head our separate ways for the summer (or in Moira’s case: winter). We wish we could take the whole yard with us!


L-R: practice tent set-up; packing for the trip

You won’t hear from us until later this week – we’ll be sure to post some pictures once we are back.

  • What a great way to end the season….2 legged and 4 legged friends on an awesome camping trip! I look forward to pics of your trip on your return….but am already bumming about the crew going their own ways….I know this happens every year but still bums me out! You guys ROCK!

  • I think the four-legged participants are going to really miss you guys – and it is lovely to have this week with them before you "break camp" for the non-mushing season!!!

    Enjoys yourselves, all the best,

  • What a fun end to another great racing season. Have a blast! Looking forward to pictures & posts. Enjoy. Which dogs get to go on this adventure?

  • How fun guys! You DO KNOW how to mix work and play!😬
    Could you please post the roster of which pups went with you? I guess it's kind of a bittersweet occasion because the race season is over and, the four of you will take different 'trails' for the summer. HOWEVER, it is also a wonderful celebration of your combined success as a team!!!!
    Happy trails Moira and Meghan! I wish you both the very best, and, I'm hopping that you BOTH return to SP Kennel this coming race season!
    Safe travels and come back soon!
    Aliy, Allen and dogs, congratulations again!
    Looking forward to your posts throught Spring, Summer and fall…… And always!
    God bless all of you!!!! 😇🐕🐾🐶🐆🌌

  • What a fantastic racing season for all the human and canine athletes. Congrats to each and every one of you!! You all deserve to treat yourselves for a job extremely well done! What a CLASS ACT in all that you do! Thank you so much for allowing us to be a part of it, you wouldn't believe how much I love the season and all that you do for the sport. I am very proud and honored to be a part of The SP Kennel!!
