It will be located in the South Priest Lake area near Coolin.

The tour will last approximately 1.5 to 2 hours and cover 8 to 12 miles up and down mountains, through the forest, and near frozen water features. We run on a permitted part of Idaho Endowment Lands near Coolin. The area we run on has little to no snowmobiling and is very quiet.

A sled will hold up to two adults and possibly a small child. There is a maximum 400lb passenger weight limit per sled. NO EXCEPTIONS. Please book an additional sled if you think your group might exceed the weight limit per sled as you will probably be more comfortable. No children under 4 or pregnant women. Please, no outside food or dog treats. Water bottles are okay. No alcohol or intoxicated customers will be allowed to ride and will forfeit. Hot cocoa and a homemade snack will be provided at the break of the tour. There will be many photo opportunities available of amazing scenery.

PLEASE CHECK THE WEATHER AND DRESS APPROPRIATELY prior to the tour. We go snow, rain or shine. We recommend long underwear, winter clothing layers you can leave in your car, gloves, and hats. Sunglasses and goggles are important, even on a cloudy day since dogs may kick up snow. We will have warm blankets and tarps to keep you dry in the sled, but only while you're in the sled. Please secure your clothing, phones, and personal items during the tour. Items dropped on the trail may become temporary property of the Huskies. If you are fortunate enough to get your dropped items back, they may be chewed, broken, or smell very different.

No, however, we will be happy to accept a gratuity should you feel our guides deserve it.

Absolutely not! They love it! If they don't get picked to run that day, they pout. They want to be with their team. Running is a reward to them. They cannot wait to run those legs!

Our season is generally 3-4 months out of the year. We need to be able to pay for our operating expenses, plus the dogs need to eat dog food and fresh meat. They also need medical attention year-round. Some years we don't even make a profit. 

Learn on the trail!

All of our tours will be mushed by one of our guides. However, based on conditions, we may teach customers to drive the sled if they are interested.
