Today’s tour with our enthusiastic guide, Harry, and his buddy was SO GOOD!! It was only my family alone in the vehicle, and along the way to the Musher’s dog site we got to take in all of what Skagway/Canada has to offer; beautiful, vast, picturesque landscapes. Mountains with glaciers peeking through behind them, shimmering lakes, breathtaking waterfalls...We were in a whole different world. The terrains kept shifting, and we had plenty of picture stops where Harry took our photo. Harry also provided us with his stories and history of the land that is Skagway, Alaska. At the Musher’s, the dogs were friendly and very adorable! We played and held some puppies and basked in their cuteness. Then we were led onto the gator and had the most thrilling ride as the huskies pulled us around a trail. The dogs at the front were the commanders while the ones at the back were the strongest. On the way back we had more picture stops where we could just enjoy the scenery and breathe fresh air. Harry and his friend brought us back to the cruise ship after a somewhat long, but comfortable ride. We truly appreciate and recommend this experience!

The puppies were adorable and social. It's so cool to learn about these dogs and their work. These dogs and their humans truly love what they do.

Where else are you going to get pulled by dogs training for the Iditarod and Yukon Quest, and in the summer, no less? Michelle Phillips' mushers camp was a once in a lifetime experience for our family of five (my husband and me, and our kids--17, 19 and 22). We loved the 1.6 mile ride (Michelle, an Iditarod competitor, was our driver with her "A Team" dogs--hooray!), and spent as much time with the puppies and young dogs that need to be socialized as possible. Gorgeous weather, and the dogs love your attention (and dog biscuits!). We enjoyed the presentation that went over all the equipment you needed--it was really interesting to see what goes in to such a long race. Lots of younger kids on this excursion, and they really loved it as well. Truth be told, we were concerned at first about the long bus ride. BUT Mike, our wild and crazy guide, was a hoot (a free spirit to be sure), and if you think about taking the train from Skagway, you never get a chance to get off and take photos. With the bus and Mike, we got to stop for snacks, take photos at BOTH the Welcome to Alaska and the Yukon signs, as well as stunning Tutshi Lake (where Mike went swimming...had to be seen to be believed!). Also, he continued his tour guide talk both ways up and back--no sleeping on this tour! Great tour, excellent experience that we won't forget. Our family voted it #1 of our excursions.
