Earlier today, I was at our local sled dog supply store--http://www.tanzilla.ca
I was picking up a brand new all cable gangline--i have a couple dogs who chew when they are excited and my gangline is decimated! There was a musher at the cash register trying to get directions to run his team into a local lake, Alligator Lake, which just happens to be where I run my dogs alot. So I gave him directions and as he was leaving he asked if I was running the QUEST!! The Yukon Quest. LOL!!When I finished laughing, I thanked him for even considering that I was capable of such a thing and explained that I only do skijoring races and my dog team is purely recreational. Turns out he is running the Quest!! I invited him to drop by my dog yard on one of his training runs so he could understand why this team is not planning to ever run the Quest.
