Pictures!

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!

Pictures!

Well, I hope this works, because it might be a while before I can fix it!
Stuck in a revolving door here, or maybe a tilt a whirl! It has been non stop since I arrived, and I never seem to be in a place with internet access long enough to download the pictures I've taken.
There are some here from the Happy Trail Kennel, the Vet Check, the Start, the Restart, and a few miles down the trail at Long Lake. It is not a lot. I worked with Mike Suprenant's team at the Start and Restart, so that kept me very busy!

Wonderful, Gatekeeper. Thank you!

Is that Mike Suprenant at the top? I'm paying particular attention to his team especially because of his kindness to Mith. It's neat that you got to work with him.

So many familiar faces: Lance, Martin, Karen, DeeDee...John and Mia! It was only a couple of days ago that I realized they have the same last name! Duh!! The pic right below theirs, the dog laying down in the hole, made me laugh out loud!

Thanks for sharing. I hope you're having an awesome time!

I thought it was great of him to get banquet tickets for Mith, AND he used to live in Texas! He is my pick for ROTY! Go Mike GO! :)
