HANDLER BACK HOME

Back home

          

Retour en France
Our handler Matt went back home and he is now in Paris...

He was a great handler, very hard worker, pleasant to be around and most important LOVED the dogs and was taking pride on making sure his chores and job was done right....

Now he has to get use to life in busy Paris again without dogs...
   Notre handler Matt est de retour en France....

Il a été un super handler, travaillant dur, plaisant et surtout il mettait beaucoup d'importance a ce que ces taches et travails qu'il avait a faire ici soit fait exactement comme nous le voulions... et le plus important de tous il ADORAIT les chiens.....

Maintenant il doit se rehabitué a la vie Parisienne !!!!

Visite chez Catherine et Bernard
Last week Jacques and I went for couple of days to visit our friends Catherine and Bernard in the Trapper Creek area.

They live in remove place only accessible by dog team, snowmachine in winter or Argo in summer.

Jacques skijor with Loly the 11 miles form the parking to the cabin, and I drove the Skandik SWT with Keops, Keops ran 7 miles out of the 11 to go to the Cabin !!!

They build a beautiful log home on a lake  by themself with tree from their properties...
they are an OUTSTANDING view of Denali from their living room...

We had a great time.... here's some photos below....
   La semaine dernière Jacques et moi sommes allé rentre visite a nos amis Catherine et Bernard qui habitent dans la région de Trapper Creek.

Ils habitent dans un endroit hors des routes accessible uniquement en hiver par chiens ou snowmachine et en été par engin amphibie.

Jacques a fait fu Skijoring avec Loly pour les 18km entre le parking et la maison. Moi j'ai voyager avec la snowmachine et Keops, qui a courrut 11km des 18 pour aller chez eux !

Ils ont construit eux meme une superbe maison en rondins au bord d'un lac  avec les arbres de leur terrains... Et ils ont une vue de Denali EXCEPTIONNELLE....

Best of the young ones

          

Meilleurs Jeunes
Looking at this season training and racing the 3 best yearlings are :
CAST
CIPHER
SNEFRU

They were all racing with us this winter.
Cast raced with Jacques in Wyoming.... Cipher and Snefru with me.
Snefru ran 3 stages in lead for me in Wyoming as well as one day in the Seeley Lake Stage race.

After the Stage races those 3 made the transition to faster pace with no problems.
Cast ran 3 days of the Rondy with Jacques and Snefru 2 days.
Snefru ran 2 days of the ONAC for me and Cast and Cipher ran all 3 days.

We bred Cipher to Jago and she is due end of April....		   En regardant les entrainements et courses de cette hiver les 3 meilleurs jeunes sont:
CAST
CIPHER 
SNEFRU

Ils ont tous courruent cet hiver avec nous.
Cast était dans l'attelage de Jacques au Wyoming, Cipher et Snefry courraient avec moi. Snrefu a fait 3 étapes en tête au Wyoming et une à Seeley Lake.

Apres les courses a étapes ces 3 là n'ont pas eu de problemes pour s'adapeter a l'entrainement plsu rapide pour la catégorie Ilimitée.
Cast à courrut les 3 jours du Rendez Vous et Snefru 2 jours.
Cast et Cipher ont courrut 3 jours de l'ONAC pour moi et Snefru les deux premiers jours.

Nous avons fait saillir Cipher par Jago et elle devrait avoir des bébés fin avril...
