"MUSH YOUR OWN DOG TEAM"
We invite you to be a part of the adventure on one of our backcountry dog sled tours.
Join us for a 1/2 Day Adventure along our scenic 12.5 mile private trail where you learn how to "Mush Your Own Team" of
Alaskan Huskies.
Approximately 2 hours On-Sled
2 Guests per sled. One guest is the musher & the other is the passenger. Half way around the trail if both guests are over 80 pounds, we stop & switch so that each guest has a chance to mush/drive the sled.
After the tour
Enjoy snuggle time! Giving the dogs love, attention and thanking them for the ride.
Hot cocoa, apple cider, cookies and brownies
Additional Tour Information
Guests under 80 lbs. may have the option to stand on the back of the sled with an adult and help them mush/drive.
If your group has smaller children, we may have 3 people on one sled (with 2 as passengers and one as a driver) depending on the size and weight of all the guests. We will NOT put more than 3 people on a sled

If a Single Occupancy sleds is required based on the makeup of your group
