Those familiar with this blog will be familiar with my various posts highlighting the Indigenous Iditarod dog musher, and first out trans woman to run the Iditarod, Apayauq. Those posts are still amongst my most popular and continually reblogged posts, they really seem to resonate with a lot of people.
During Apayauq's most recent Iditarod, where she came in last and took the Red Lantern, a documentary by Zeppelin Zeerip was made. I've been closely watching the documentary's success on the film festival market and not only has it recently won Best Indigenous Short at BENDFilm, but APAYAUQ has been nominated for an Academy Award!
This is huge news!

Went down to check out the start of the @percydewolfe mail race! Lots of enthusiasm and barking. Not a huge race but really interesting to watch. Going to have to look into joining the board this year 🙂 #dogsledding #percydewolfememorialmailrace #dawsoncity #visitdawsoncity #trondëkhwëchinterritory #yukonterritory #memorialrace #winter (at Dawson, Yukon Territory) https://www.instagram.com/p/CplJ5_gvr75/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I always appreciate a guest post from Slim Randles and today he's sharing an interesting, and embarrassing, experience he had when meeting Colonel Norman Vaughn, a renowned dog-sledder who rescued people during WWII. Enjoy the story on my blog.

My OG team at the end of their run this morning! Mr D took Slash on the bike and I went on the rig because despite the snow on our driveway the road was pretty bare.
Feeling a lot more confident again, even if Sigurd was a bit of a dick to Zombie in the beginning (leaping and biting her). She truly has the patience of a saint, but i was SO grateful to have my powerhouse big dog back in front of me on the last half of our run.
There was one very scary moment where a car did NOT wait for us to pull over and came up behind us to pass us very very suddenly and the dogs handled it like champs. I love my bombproof tough doggies so much. Will be calling my car guy tomorrow….
