What To Expect
You will mush on a tag sled- a sled attached to the rear of the main sled in dog mushing. The tag sled allows you to practice steering and staying upright without having responsibility to control the dog team. You and your guide the Alaskan Huskies from our Race kennel in our dog yard will take you out for a couple of hours With our Iditarod and Yukon Quest mushers or our outdoor guides you are taking off. The tag sled allows two people on it. So you switch place between you and your partner halfways if there are more people than you.
You have the possibility to take some pictures with you and the dogs. Enjoy the solitude of Alaska and experience the connection with the Dogs .Learn how to use the brake and how to lean in the turns on sometimes tricky trails. Feel the dog power.Secure the sled and helping breaking down the speed of the dog team when it is going downhill.
The tour starts at 10 am in our dog yard with the presentation and it ends around 2 pm with a warm beverage and cookies i our cozy yurt.
