Yup, the eyes tell the story Geoff. It's interesting to see there are paw protectors that actually stay on given the stress they're subjected to.

I'm not sure such racy photos belong in N&W Geoff.

But they are very well done with the next to last standing out ~ Ron

Awesome captures, Geoff.

I hope Ron does not apply an executive order...

Nice series Geoff. Since you've captured the start of the race, I think that you're now obligated to take some at the finish!

Thanks for the support but I think Ron's comment was all in good faith with his use of the term "racy"....I'm not sure what will happen at the border as they make their way into AK

Then again AK let me in this summer without a passport so up here Trump has less influence

Trust me (

)...I know Ron's sense of humor well enough to know exactly what he meant...and my comment was, I guess, not as obviously a tongue in cheek reply....I've learned...If you ain't laughin' then you are cryin'

These are wonderful. The dogs seem bred to the task. Reminds me of the Robert Service poetry. Thanks.

Well I found one bootie on the snow walking home. The mushers carry many sets as they do wear out and get lost but they do stay on with the tight tape fairly well.

You can't not see the drive in their eyes. Beautiful shots of beautiful working dogs!
