Robert took some cool drone video of the 2021 Eagle River Classic in Chugiak, Alaska. There were four classes in the race; 4-dog, 6-dog, 8-dog, and open class.

Robert took some cool drone footage of the kids as they head out on the Willow Junior 100 sled dog race this past weekend. There were 12 kids from all over Alaska that was competing. For several of them it was their first race.

Vela
We lost a special girl yesterday. Vela was part of the Kasilof Crew that we got from our friend, James Wheeler when we were starting out our kennel here in Willow.
While Vela was super shy she was always excited to run, especially in races. She was one of our first command leaders and taught a puppy or two how to lead the team.
In this pic she (on right) is with her buddy TyTy at the start of the Tustumena 200 several years ago.
This is always the hardest part of being a dog musher. We try our best to provide them the best from the moment they arrive until they decide it is time to go. Vela, my sweet girl, you will be missed.
