Ditt beste hundekjørerminne:
Camping in the mountains, way above the tree line, nothing but snow, me and the dogs, we had worked very hard all day, overcoming many challenges, the dogs had all eaten, had massages and were all bedded down & I was snug in my sled bag, we were all ready for a good night sleep, it was cold, clear and silent, then a spectacular display of Aurora Borealis got underway & all the dogs filled the air with song. Exhausted but content from all our hard work, sleeping outside with my team mates, I couldn't have dreamed anything so magical.
