Crossing

A crossing of 3 dog sled teams on the trails with Good Times Adventures:
Team 1: 8 friends pulling a sled in front of us.
Team 2: look straight ahead of Zorro and there is another 8 dog team parked watching the team go by.
Team 3: Max & Zorro, of course!
A fun meeting of 3 sled dog teams on the trails :)
Max & Zorro love playing "chase & follow" with the dog sled teams on the trails. Here's a fun shot of a team in front of us that we are gaining ground upon:
Zoom we go as you can make out the 8 dog team + sled/musher in front of us.
How much fun do Max & Zorro have playing "sled dog chase" - well just watch today's video clip.

As the clip starts, nothing is in view in front of us. Watch closely as after about 25 seconds or so a team starts to come into view on the trail in front of us. We continue to "gain ground" on this team flying along the trails. Finally, the team stops and we hang a left pass by on an upper trail. Wheeee!
[watch on youtube if no video loads below]

Final fun shot of the day:
"You have any idea what that sign means?" asks Max to Zorro as we speed by a SLOW sign.
"Nope, I don't speak that language!" says sprinting Zorro.

A fun & fast day sprinting around the trails at Swan Valley with teams from Good Times: 10.2 miles traveled with 1100 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 25 MPH.

2016/2017 Season to Date: 53 days on the trails covering 410.1 miles with 42,700 feet of elevation climbed.
