Birthday

For my birthday today, Max & Zorro gave me "flying Siberians" on the trails this morning.
What a great present!
Flying along the fast terrain on the Middle Fork trail at Swan Valley - zoooom!

Everyone was excited to know if I liked my present...
"That was fun - huh?" asks happy Max at our turnaround on Middle Fork.
"But, but, I still have more flying to give!" exclaims Zorro.
"I sure hope you are having as good time as us!" declares happy Zorro checking back.
"Let's keep going, we've got more 'flying Siberians' to deliver!" states forward moving Max.

We were on the trails that are shared with the dog sled tours from Good Times Adventures. Usually we encounter many teams on the trails and engage in some fun games of tag & chase. Today, though, we only encountered one team. We were approaching each other head on as I prepared Max & Zorro for a perfect "head on pass" when the two lead dogs from Good Times decided they wanted to play instead of pass (notice the leader on the left in this photo already leaning in to play instead of pass). The leaders came right and touched noses before getting back to the business of being sled dogs :)
"We can pass if you can pass!" declare Max & Zorro. 

Back to the presents...
Flying Siberians - wheeee!

A fun day on the trails traveling 9.1 miles with 900 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 22 MPH.

2015/2016 Season to Date: 43 days on the trails covering 362.3 miles with 38200 feet of elevation climbed.
