Dog Sled
View Original Description
Man’s Best Friend provides the mode of propulsion for unique winter adventures that require no special skills or level of fitness for those seeking alternatives to skiing, snowshoeing or snowmobiling. Canine power has provided a mode of transportation for hunters and travelers over ice and snow for at least a thousand years. The art of assembling the teams for Dog Sledding requires a special talent for selecting just the right lead dog and the various supporting members of the team to make for a harmonious group that can handle any challenge presented. Travelling with well-trained Sled Dogs provides an excellent method for enjoying nature’s bounty in pristine environments with relative silence as compared to motorized transport.
Day trips and multi-day excursions that often combine Dog Sledding, Cross Country Skiing and Camping are popular among outdoor enthusiasts. Lodge to Lodge excursions allow for full day sledding adventures with the warmth of an indoor bed and fireplace waiting at the end of each day’s journey. Lodges in the northern United States, Alaska, Canada, New Zealand, Sweden, Finland and Norway are at the forefront of the available tour operators. Most tour operators can accommodate special needs and will provide appropriate clothing and equipment.
Your dream of gliding through unspoiled winter landscapes while being pulled along by a powerful team of Sled Dogs guided in a masterful fashion by their musher can be a reality once you add the adventure to your list. Imagine yourself enjoying the great outdoors with your newly found canine friends.
