Hi, we're Ed Hopkins and Michelle Phillips - we'd like to invite you to run with us and our elite canine athletes!
The 2010 / 2011 season was a busy one. Michelle ran the 2011 Yukon Quest and the 2011 Iditarod. A highlight of her busy winter was placing 17th in the Iditarod out of a strong field of 62 mushers. Ed ran many mid distance races placing 2nd in the Yukon Quest 300 and running the 2011 Kobuk.
In the winter months you will find us behind a team of dogs night and day! We are looking forward to another busy racing season and the challenges that lay ahead. Mush on..........
For the 2011/ 2012 racing season we have a busy season planned. Michelle will run the 2012 Iditarod and some mid distance races. Ed will continue to run mid distance.
For the past 12 years Ed, Michelle and Keegan and up to 90 Alaskan huskies have been providing visitors with adventures from 30 minutes to 7 days.
Michelle has been running dogs for 14 years and Ed has been mushing dogs for 26 years. They love to share their passion for sled dogs with visitors far and wide. Michelle has run 6 Yukon Quest and 2 Iditarods with her best finish in the Quest being 4th and her best finish in the Iditarod being 17th. Ed has raced 5 Yukon Quests and also competed in many mid distance races over the years.
