Just off the trails and relaxing before dinner. We went out this morning for a few hours traveling across Iron Lake and then into a spruce bog area for our warm up first ride to get used to the dogs and sleds. Quite an adventure. Back for another great meal, a few stories and then to the lake where we left the dogs harnessed to the sleds. A couple of dogs are chewers so a harness was eaten, lucky there are spares. Our dog team got adjusted and we lost Able my favorite lead dog. We were back up to 5 but as we crossed the lake what looked like a new fast team was a really slow team, slower than our morning trip with 4 dogs. John and Sue were our day guides and they decided to adjust the teams and even out the power. We got Dozer, you can tell by his name that he was a monster. It made a big difference. We were last in the line of five sleds but certainly not the slowest. The next couple of hours we spent crashing through the woods and across the lakes until we found our way back to the lodge. I here that dinner is almost on so that's all for now
