Karen Ramstead...not yet in to Safety

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

Yeah Karen! Now I get to go to bed. LOL. I can tell my daughter I saw Karen make it to Nome. It was a bit late here at 2 am for her to stay up. :D I was determined to stay up til she finished.

Congratulations Karen and team! I couldn't stay up to see Karen come in, but hurried to the standings a few minutes ago to look for her. :D Very nice race, smartly run. Snickers must be smiling, fluffy tail held high, looking down on Karen and the team.

Congratulations to Karen! I, too, went to bed before she arrived, but hurried here after checking her Newsgroup.

I also began following the Iditarod after first reading Karen's website and Diary Entries on the site. That was 2000, and I had become enamored with the Siberian Husky breed. As the year's have gone by, my respect for Karen and her family has grown. My dream is to be in Anchorage for the Start and to be able to attend her Open House. Soon, I hope, soon.

As for the "Pretty Sled Dogs" video, yes I have seen it. We have almost worn out the DVD, so have to get a new one soon. Love hearing Hobo Jim's songs that accompany the video.

The music on Pretty Sled Dogs is all original music by Kyf Brewer -- his song Husky's Code brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.

You can hear the song Sixteen Pretty Sled Dogs and see Snickers, running forever in lead here:
