Carman Blizzardfest "MA-MOW-WE-TAK DOG SLED RACES"

Had the honor of being recruited to help out with the first annual dog sled races at this years Blizzardfest festivities! What an AMAZING weekend! Takes me back to the days of the Yukon quest and Rendezvous in Whitehorse, YT where I grew up! This was the first event of its kind held in these parts and personally I think it was a FANTASTIC success! Sean Billing, event co-ordinator for the Dog sled races, should be highly commended for pulling off such an ordeal with NO real hitches (well maybe a random sled full of dogs running around free for awhile but other than that..NONE) Seriously though, it was such a warm experience. Thank you so much Sean for including me in your day, I learned a lot about this sport AND how to take pictures with one hand and time a race finish with the other! See you all next year!
