Husky Expedition

On to day two of my Arctic Adventure. Today's activity was a ride through another national park driving a sleigh drawn by huskies. After meeting our dog team of eight eager huskies we set out across a deserted wilderness, taking it in turn to drive. No too difficult to master as the only control is a break, plus a bit of leaning into the corners . Wonderfully peacefull, to the extent that we saw no  other signs of human activity for the whole of the expedition.  Our lunch break consisted of a very filling elk soup followed by a local dessert speciality made from squeaky cheese in a caramel saue with cranberries. Very tasty. We managed the return journey to the husky farm without any mishap and said goodbye to our dog team before the drive back to our lodge.
