Sweetwater Challenge #1!

After 7 1/2 hours of driving we finally found snow! The Sweetwater Challenge was so much fun, and I think it's safe to to say that it was most fun I've ever had... yet. :) The trails there are awesome, very challenging and great for testing your sled driving skills! The weather was amazing both days, and they even got a couple inches of fresh snow the night before day 1. It was so awesome to be completely alone with 5 of my best friends with the only sounds being them breathing and the runners on the fresh snow. We went 12 miles on Saturday, and 8.5 on Sunday. It was an incredible weekend and we're planning on going back up for the Sweetwater Challenge #2 in a couple weeks! Here are some photos from the weekend!

Kodiak and Zorro. I think Zorro's wondering why we're back at the truck so soon!



Good leaders! They're my cuddlers. : )

Kodiak's such an awesome dog!
