Mini musher arrival!

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!

Just got 2 more pics from Matt. I can see they are all home, so as soon as the pack gets settled in, I'm sure he will take over picture posting duties.

Zoya’s eye is ok, just looks worse than it is, bit swollen. Snippet has taken up aunty guard the baby duties, all the dogs have been amazing. I have been bringing back some of his clothes for them to sniff each evening to get used to his smell

Ok, now the race is nearly done, we have a name for baby tangles.....

River David Christopher Hammersley

(David and Christopher after our amazing fathers)

We had two names we have loved and discussed for the past 2 years or so and really really couldn’t decided (the other was Raffi) but we decided we had to make a choice by this evening and River had been the name we liked the longest. So River it is. (It also means alot to us with our lives in surfing and mushing)

Matty, Ems and River xx
