Ski Joëring with one and two dogs at The Polar Adventure : Méaudre, Isere, France
Skijoring with a dog is a sport in which a dog, assist a cross-country skier. One to two dogs are commonly used. The cross-country skier provides power with skis and poles, and the dog adds additional power by running and pulling.
The skier wears a skijoring harness, the dog wears a sled dog harness, and the two are connected by a length of rope. There are no reins or other signaling devices to control the dog.
The dog must be motivated by its own desire to run, and respond to the owner's voice for direction.
What you see at a race is the result of long hours of work and planning to ensure that the team is prepared to test its abilities against the trail and the competition.

I have not put on a pair of skis in over 30 years although we live in Utah with the greatest snow on earth. We love to go sledding and make snowmen. Our winter has not provided us with lasting snow in the valley, it snows and melts within a few days so I had to take advantage of the powder in the driveway today. My daughter had these cute ski poles with her dolls' clothes, she crocheted the clothes the dino is wearing too. She has challenged me to stay working with the dinosaurs until I run out of ideas. Limits are so helpful in spurring creative ideas if you ever end up with a block you should put limits on yourself.
The west side of the Tetons. There's a mid sized ski area called Grand Targhee and this is the view of the Tetons that you get from the top of the mountain. I was lucky enough to capture the ski tracks and to get a cloudless day (because ordinarily it's a very cloudy area).
Skiing in Rondane with my son. The picture does not show the strong wind and low teperature -11 celsius. We had a fantastic four day skiing. Sunny but cold, the warmest -6c mid day and -27c one night we slept in tent. 90 km in moutain terain. Thanks to my son wo still want to spend some time with the old man and make him feel strong.
Last week I went to the Pitztal in Austria to finish my next skiing instructor level. The Pitztal glacier is the highest glacier in Tyrol with the so called "Wildspitze" (3768m) being the second highest Mountain in Austria.
I got this shot on our first run down the Wildspitze in the morning, just one hour later the whole glacier was covered in clouds for the rest of the day, making this the lucky shot of the trip.
I just recently started out with 500px, it would be a pleasure for me if you visit my stream there as well. 500px.com/vionent
Teststrecke für Fahrzeuge aller Art.
Vornehmlich Ski.
Test track for vehicles of all kinds.
Mainly skis.
These hills are only ten minutes from our town centre. Tomorrow it is going to rain so perhaps this was the last day skiing up here this winter,
Did my longest skate ski of the year, 36km. Felt great, but very tired this morning. If you are wondering what's in the bag, look at the first picture in the comments.
