It was a glorious sunrise. With just enough snow to catch a run at Dorchester, a few mushers and their teams set out for a Christmas mush. Most of us had some sort of Christmas costume or accessory, some sleds were decorated too and many of the dogs were wearing bandanas. The gated entrance was closed so we had to all squeeze into a small staging area rather than being able to hook up from our dog trucks. With close to 60 dogs all shoulder to shoulder, we had a very successful hook-up! My dogs had not had chance to run with many other teams so far this season, so the level of excitement was high as you will see from the following photos.....Live Free And MUSH!
