Some of us have seen videos of sled dog racers standing on the runners, speeding across the finish line with ecstatic crowds cheering and bright lights flashing.
When I watched this video that Janice had taken while visiting me last year in late April, I realized how far removed we are from modern-day dog sledding.
This is how we travel for months at a time, one "step" at a time, climbing mountain passes, building snow bridges across creeks, setting up camp and breaking camp every day, traveling across regions of the Arctic that haven't ever been traveled before by dog-team in recorded history and seeing God's amazing creation, untouched and undisturbed. This is how we roll.
The way I was imagining life when I was a kid. Makes me happy to see that someone somewhere made it true.
Breathtaking! Great to see you out in the front leading the way for your dogs.
