I guess you must be thinking, "she´s out of her mind or is she serious about letting siberians run loose?" Well, we may be out of our minds but throughout the years with siberians we´ve seen strange things happening and impossible things being possible.

Annie's Excellent Adventure

“Well?”
I look over my shoulder & answer,
“I don’t know”.
Annie looks up into my eyes as if to say,
“I have a secret”.
I give her a rub down, a kiss and tell her, through telepathy of course,
“I will know your secret…eventually!”
This scenario plays itself out everyday….sometimes twice per day, sometimes more.

I'm going to leave most of the pre race tales to Gwen. I know she is just dying to tell the tale of the dog truck in the ditch, so you'll have to hold on to hear that story!

Suffice to say it was good to be back at Wolverine Lodge. Mark and I trained out of there for many weeks in '03 and spent a few days there in '04 and '05 too. The Lake Louise area remains one of our favourite areas of Alaska and the memories here are all good ones.

(New Cabela's extreme cold weather boots, Cabela's extreme cold weather suit, etc.) I was very confident that this would be my fastest trip to Nome via dog team!

From a deluxe, custom built, cedar log home (seriously, they are out there !), to a simple recycled barrel, you have as many options as your imagination and pocket book will allow!
