Hard November soon over




Ideally a hard November should mean hard training for the dogs, but not this year. November has been hard of solid ice on roads and everywhere else making the training difficult. We have almost managed to do the planned training, but it has involved a lot of traveling to Kiruna, Skibotn, Dividalen and Øvre Sopero. Finally the snow has arrived again making doglife a little lighter... But we have also had some really good trips the last weeks. Cart training in the mountains of Skibotn and sledding in Soppero with expert mushers imported all the way from Australia. In Soppero we did long runs during the day and warmed up in the sauna afterwards.
