2007 Cascade Quest Prep @ Trinity





Well after getting the Ranger back at Trinity this week I've been doing all that I can to get ready for the sled dog teams to arrive Sat morning for the 12 dog teams and then Sat evening for the 6 dog teams, they will spend the night and leave Sun morning for the Rec center and the finish of the race.
The snow is compacting somewhat but it has been so cold that once you break the crust that is on top it just wants to fluff up. We should start seeing the vet and support crew arriving this afternoon. The sun is shining here and it is beautiful and looks like a great weekend for this race after not getting to run it the year before last because of a lack of snow, and last year it was cut short because of all of the snow we got Friday night and Sat, over 3' in just over 24 hours and for the week over 7' of new snow. The conditions are so much better this year and should make for a good race. These are a few pictures of what me and the Ranger have done with the drag on the snow.
We found our Paradise, hope you find yours. Namaste'
