Fall/Winter Help -help train sled dogs for the upcoming racing and tour season and stay for our busy winter season.
You will get the opportunity to be immersed in sled dog culture! Our family loves the outdoors! We relish the opportunity to race our dogs against other teams. A unique opportunity for the right person...this is a true northern experience. Dog racing's historical roots come from when trappers came off the land and got together; they had a lot of pride in their dog teams and abilities: so of course they raced to see who was the best.
