More Miles



This morning we ran two eight dog teams, one for fifteen miles and one for seven miles.
The first team, led by LilleN and Buffy, was very fast not only on the first mile takeoff but as they kept a pace along the grade.
As we ran the snow fell and as we took off with the second team the trail was filled in. Not sure if that was blowing or actual amount of snow accumulated.
Pretty uneventful running and beautiful, but the warm winds are coming, we hear.

This is a photo of the first team in the first leg of the run by a small wilderness lake. We did not meet a single snowmachine this morning.

Team is: Lillen (black leader ), Buffy; Medio and Rosie in swing, Quattro and Kiddo, and Martin
(white dog) and Herman in wheel. Rosie has the least experience and she was a bit tired but not
bad.
The second team was a hodge podge and they had a few tangles but our great little Frita did get to run and didn't act like she has a bad hip at all.
