Between Lake Michigan and Lake Superior lies an expanse of land called the Upper Peninsula of Michigan containing thousands of square miles of semi wilderness to wilderness area. Between these two great bodies of water are marshlands and lakes with fir, pine, and spruce trees dotting their shores. These lowlands are surrounded by upland ridges where maple, birch, beech, red pine, and the great white pines thrive.
After the summer growing season, when the trees lose their coat of leaves, the winds shift from south to north ushering in the beginning of a long winter blanket of snow with temperatures around zero. It is now time for the adventures of dog sledding in the Hiawatha National Forest.
The picture above is most of Fred's long distance team. Obedience training was done by Jennifer.

If you would like to ride or drive (mush) a dog sled for 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, a weekend All Inclusive Package or take one of our Wilderness Experience Tours or anything in between, we can accommodate your wilderness dog sledding adventure.
Children ages 5 and up are welcome to ride along on this unique winter experience.
Its fun for the entire family
