Steamboat Dog Sledding®
We have 2 Unique Trails to Chose from
WEST TRAIL
Description
"DRIVE YOUR OWN DOG TEAM"
Owned and operated by Iditarod Musher, Kris Hoffman.
Join us for a 1/2 Day Adventure where you will learn how to "Drive Your Own Team" of Alaskan Huskies along our scenic 12.5 mile backcountry trail. This tour is approximately 2 hours On-Sled
There are 2 people per sled with one person as the driver & the other as the passenger. Half way around the trail if both are adults, we stop & switch so that each person gets a chance to drive the sled. Kids (under 80 lbs) will have the option to stand on the sled and help drive with an adult.
*If you have smaller children we will sometimes have 3 people in one sled depending on the size and weight of all the guests.
