However, we took three teams out this afternoon so I thought I would post a report!
Team 1
Sherman & Jasper
Rallie & Shelby
Kako
Gus
Zena & Marco
This was a great team. I rode in the sled since we are giving a ride tomorrow we wanted to figure out which team would haul a load the best!! And I am quite a load to haul!! HA HA!!! This team took just under 20 minutes to go about 4 miles. We don't make good time but we have fun!!!
Team 2
Baleen & Shasta
Stubby & Bolio
Kivek
Dude
Rufus & Tanner
This team seemed a bit slower right off the get go. The leaders weren't keeping the team lined out and we had to slow them down some! Then, when we got to the turn around Shasta decided to go the back way around the loop. Then they missed the turn into the turn around loop ... I hopped out of the sled and ran down the trail a bit to get them going the right way. To let them by, I stepped off the trail just a bit. The snow is deep just off the trail and I fell down. I figured I would just stay down until the sled was next to me to pick me up... well, as the sled was coming up to me the runner caught and the sled ended up running into my shin and then running over my leg!! Shit! That hurt! It took this team just over 20 minutes to do the 4 miles.
Team 3
Panzer & Patton
Shammu
Muktuk
Hannah
Yeti
This was figured to be the slow team but they were just as fast as the other teams. The key was I was not sitting in the sled this time!! Tom ran the team alone while I started the cleaning of the pens! He said they looked really good. He took Panzer out of lead at the turn around and Patton ran the team home as a strong single leader!!
I am sore tonight, but I am hoping I am NOT too sore tomorrow!! I can feel the stiffness settling in because I also fell in the dog yard this morning while feeding the dogs breakfast!!
Happy Trails!!
C & T & the Gang
