1/24 - 1/30/16
Where the dogs live. 10 of about 60. |
Where I live upon arrival and the last night. |
Where I live the rest of the time. Sleeping bag, duffel bag and backpack at the shoreline. |
How my boots spend the night. The liners got to be inside the sleeping bag. |
Dawn over the dog shit pile. |
What the dogs eat--dividing up frozen ground meat with a log splitter. |
What we eat when we run out of cream of broccoli soup. |
On the first day we speed along on groomed trails with empty sleds. |
Tin Can Mike hoping to be chosen for some sledding fun--eat, sleep, howl, shit, fight and pull. |
We load up the sleds |
And load up the dogs and sleds. Owner, guide and polar explored Paul Sherke surveys our progress. |
We proceed along the road that takes us into the Boundary Waters Wilderness. Some on sleds and most on skis. |
And off we go. |
Sometimes the trail just opens ahead of you... |
other times it falls away. Rolled the sled on this one. |
