BALD EAGLE FESTIVAL
| Haines Alaska |
Rassemblement des Aigles |
Well I wanted to go there for a long time and this summer I decided I'll go this year.
Every year the Bald Eagles come to Haines to feed on a very late runs of Chum Salmon coming up the Chilkat River. The Chilkat river as a warm current and the river don't freeze so the salmon come late in it.
The Bald Eagles knows about it and they gather there EVERY YEAR to feed... About 3500 Bald Eagles come !
I will take a 2 day photo class with Arthur Morris a professional bird photographer from Florida.
I look foward to the class to get better and learn.. Now let's hope the weather will be OK. |
Je voulais aller a Haines depuis longtemps et cet été j'ai décidé d'y aller cet hiver.
Tous les ans les Aigles a tête Blanches se réunissent a Haines pour se nourrir de Saumon dans la Chilkat River.
La Chilkat river a un courrant chaud qui l'empêche de geler aussi vite que les autres rivières donc les saumons la remontent très tard et les aigle le savent.
Plus de 3500 Aigles se réunissent pour se super dîner tous les ans....
Je me suis inscrite a deux jours de cours photos avec un photographe professionnel de Floride Arthur Morris.
Je suis contente d'avoir trouver enfin un cours photo et j'espère apprendre beaucoup et améliorer mes photos .
Maintenant il faut espérer que la météo sera coopérative.

Trying to find new leaders
Try to renew Leaders
|
|
Trouver des nouveaux chiens de tête
|
Some of our main leaders are getting old or will not run this winter.
Jenny and Jewel are out completely it seems their injuries from last winter came back and will not let them run... this is sad new for us....
Memphis is still on training but I run her less... she is getting old....
So for the main race team Jacques has Google, Jasper and Loly.
I have Pyramid, Onyx, Janet, Fuji and Memphis...
We tried few dogs...
Konga ! well I think she will be a good one but next year she will practice for sure this year but need to me more "focus" !!!
Mulder is doing great....
Edfu, less crazy in lead has in the back and at least he can't chew the main line anymore.
Quena and Giza are often in lead with an experienced dog... They are both doing good.
We will see who ended up holding on all the training and racing in lead...
For now the dogs have over 350 miles of training.

Certains de nos chiens de tête deviennent vieux ou ne courront pas cet hiver.
Jewel et Jenny sont bléssées leur petits bobo de l'an derniers sont revenus et elles sont toutes les deux OUT ! Très triste pour nous.
Memphis toujours a l'entraînement mais je l'entraine moi que les autres... elle devient vieille.
Pour l'attelage principale de Jacques il y a Loly, Jasper et Google.
Moi j'ai Onyx, Janet, Pyramid, Fuji et Memphis...
Nous avons essayé quelques chiens en tête:
KONGA: elle sera bonne l'an prochain, on va l'entrianer comme leader a l'entraînement mais elle a besion d'etre plus "focus".
Mulder ca va bien...
Edfu, ca le calme et en plus il ne peut pas manger la ligne....
Quena et Giza sont biensure en tête regulièrement avec des chiens plus experimentés.
On verra cet hiver qui finit dans les courses en tête....
Maintenant nos chiens ont plus d'entraînement dans les pattes.

LANCE MACKEY
The one who made history
|
|
Il marqué à jamais une page de l'histoire de notre sport
|
Last week end at the ADMA Symposium I went to only ONE talk... LANCE MACKEY and I am so happy I did...
first for those of you who don't know who he is !!!
WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN !!!!!
HE IS THE FIRST MUSHER WHO WON QUEST AND IDITAROD IN THE SAME YEAR !!!!!
Lance talked about his life and dogs of course he made sure that we all know that his family is very IMPORTANT !!!
And he mention things about his dogs !!!!! He wants them CRAZY WITH LOT OF ATTITUDE.... and GOOD APPETITE... feet and confirmation is secondary !!!
He explain they chew necklines like crazy and jump and make noise... IF THEY DON'T HE DON'T WANT THEM !!!!!!!
This was nice to hear... for me.... since our dogs are always so noisy and I always have to carry many SPARE necklines and always have to watch every one of them at the starting line.... and if I stop too long I know I'll have to change necklines !!!!
Anyhow Lance talk was great and funny !!!!
He had 13 dogs in his Iditarod team that just finish the Quest ! more he had one YEARLING (less than 2 years old dog) that Finish the Quest (winning team) and then the dog went all the way to White Mountain on the Iditarod !!! AMAZING....
you can go online to ADMA web site and buy the CD I think.....

Le week end dernier je suis allée au seminaire organizé par le club de Fairbanks. Je n'ai ecouter que un presentateur LANCE MACKEY !!!!
Si vous ne savez pas qui il est ! je ne sais pas sur quelle planete vous vivez !
Il est le premier musher a gagner le Quest et L'Iditarod la meme année !!!
Lance a parler de ca famille, sa vie et ces chiens biensure....
Il a parler de ces chiens ! ils les veux FOUX et BRUYANT !!! ils veut les voirent sauter, faire du bruit et si ils mangent les necklines PAS GRAVE !!!!
Si le chien n'est pas super exiter pour courrir il n'en veut pas !!!!
Ca m'a fait plasir d'entendre ca.... car nos chiens sont connus pour etre bruyant et destrcuteurs a l'arret !!!!
Lance avant 13 chiens dans sont attelage Iditarod qui venaient de finir le Quest ! et un super YEARLING (chien de moins de 2 ans) qui a fit le Quest (attelage vainqueur) et il a été jusuq'a White Mountain sur l'Iditarod assez incroyable non???
