So the Iron Dog is about half done already. From what I’ve read and heard it was one of the toughest races for the racers. Little to no snow in places and rough as a cob to boot. As of this AM, 13 of the 29 Pro Class teams have scratched for one reason or more »

I always look forward to the club’s annual valentine run from Fairbanks to Nenana, I only wish the river or should I say my sled felt the same way. Last year the shaft broke on the Panther, this year the dog gone chain case went. Now I did buy a nice new M-6 after last more »

Since we got back from Petersville’s I’ve been on one ride and the snow was marginal as best. We rode on the Flats and I took the M-6, big mistake, should of rode the Panther (trail sled). First off it was -16 when we left, no biggie really, but then it dropped to -25 below more »

Well it seems this holiday season Trish and I were left all alone as the kids and grandkids decided to have a Christmas down in Anchorage. I guess we could of gone with them, but neither of us really cares for the big city, so we decided to do some winter RVing near Trapper Creek, more »

And it was a cold start and low snow. Rumors are going around about snow here and snow there and then you hear they got 3 feet at Summit and it was all blown away within 24 hours. And now we have lots of impatience folks just itching to ride. So we meet at Chatanika more »

My plans for the weekend were changed do to unforeseen circumstances, and since I already had the sleds loaded to go, why waste a nice sunny day with snow on the ground. So my neighbor Jake, along with Tyler and I headed out to the flats via the ice bridge at the end of Cushman more »

I always love Cantwell in March, the weather is usually starting to get warmer and the snow is fluffy and soft. We headed down on Friday the 20th for the Backwoods Lodge, Mike and Kathy are the best of host and always treat us well. This year they were swamped and out of rooms, but more »

March 14th was FST’s SnoRondy, our 9th annual and by far the best Rondy we’ve had to date. Lots of folks showed up for the Drag Races, Kids SnoCross, 120 Rodeo, obstacle course, and of course hot dogs and brats. As always, I was scrambling my butt off to get the drags organized (racer signups, more »
