"For we walk by faith, not by sight".
-2 Corinthians 5:7-
​
​For more than four decades, Joe and his team have cut their own trails across the Arctic, 43 years of breaking ground where no dog team ever had before. ​
​
Driven by grit, and guided by an unbroken bond, they've mapped more than miles. They've documented history. His dogs are true legends of the North.
The last command carrying the strength of an ancient breed unlike any other on earth. ​
Joe has pioneered and perfected a method of travel that is unprecedented in modern times, being the only person in written history to have ever traveled solo with a dogteam in the Arctic for four months at a time without resupply.
And each and every year, Joe and his team continue to break trail for months on end where no dogteam has ever traveled in recorded history.
His malamutes' accomplishments have proven the resilience of the ancient Alaskan malamute draft-dog breed and highlight Joe's unconventional training methods.
Despite these accomplishments, Joe attributes his strength, the dogs' stamina, and their powerful builds to God, our creator. He thanks the Lord Jesus Christ for the opportunity to serve dog-loving communities and inspire people worldwide.
But "no man is an island" and Joe's loving support from his wife, Janice, has proved this statement to be true. Our Lord has certainly blessed both of them, and we thank Him unceasingly and pray that their efforts will inspire others.
