We had a grate trip last week, nice cold weather and good snow conditions made the trip a good preparation for the upcoming Finnmarksløpet. We started from Devddes and took the route Derta, Havga, Kiepan, Vouma, Gaskas, Innset.
I think I have never seen so few Ptarmigan or tracks before, saw three birds and hardly no tracks, but a lot of reindeer in the area and more wolverine tracks than ever before. The dogs did a good job also, I had one adult lead dog in my team and the rest was youngsters. Pelle and Bård both got valuable lead dog training, braking trail in new terrain and keeping a straight course in the white mountains together with Momba. Kafka that i borrowed from Magne and Ragnhild also did a grate job, not bad doing this trip when in front of a sled for the second time and normally living life as a pet dog... Thanks to the team for a good week.
