3-Day Dogsled Trip Package

"Drive your own team"

(Custom Scheduling.....Dec 27 thru March 20)

	$1175 /person.... includes meals, lodging, guiding, and dogs! 3 days /3 nights 2 people (plus guide) 1 person per sled
	This is a hands-on dogsled trip for those interested in being fully involved in driving and managing their own 5-6 dog team. With one person per sled, we are able to travel more comfortably and cover more miles in a variety of terrain, and explore further out from base camp. There's more time for personalized attention and one on one instruction in the finer points of mushing. And along the way, we hope you'll share our interest in winter ecology and animal tracking. No experience necessary; must be in reasonably good shape. Trip members lodge in Millinocket the night before our mid-morning rendezvous at our trailhead on Day 1. We transport guests by snowmobile 8 miles to camp, and settle you into your private cabin. After lunch in our dining room, we spend the afternoon showing you the basics of harnessing, hooking up, and driving your own team. We spend the next two days exploring the surrounding lake and forest wilderness by dogsled. By mid morning on Day 4, we'll have you back to the trailhead and your vehicle.

Introduction to Dogsledding

	Our full and half day trips meet at our kennel on Millinocket Lake, 8 miles outside of Millinocket on the Baxter Park road.(1.5 hrs drive from Bangor, 4 hrs from Portland) The program includes meeting the huskies, taking photos, helping with feeding and caring, Q&A, etc. Afterwards, we harness up a team or two and mush 15-20 miles around Millinocket Lake, with Mt Katahdin rising spectacularly in the background. Everyone, including kids, can take a turn on the runners driving the sled.
