Americano Blue's musher/mushing chat thread

e I finally went to pick-up my dry land rig. When I got there the guy also gave me a 3 wheeled rig. They are home-made but built like brick outhouses. They need work and I'm real excited about doing the 'man thing' and tweeking things. Of course I'l be painting them. Maybe even to match last year's sled build.

It's warm again :/ to warm almost. But I've been off my game so I haven't worked the dogs for a week ish now

Hey Rosie girl
Nice to see you. Well... So to speak.
What temp exactly is "too warm"?
Here( where I am) the temps have been hovering around+2to-4or5 during the nights and +8to-1or2. That's Celsius temps..
So +45 to +22 *F

Nice! Definitely would love to see some pics of both... I'm trying to figure out how to build one for 6-10 dogs (weighted down with more dogs).

Busier than a cat tryna bury crap on a tin roof at 2PM on a clear day in August.

I know what you mean. My dogs' winter tether area is gutter/ I've never seen it so wet. Even spring ain't this dirty.
Thank goodness the sun finally shone today all day cpl 930 this morn.
A little prayer sure went a long way. I shoulda thought about that 2 weeks ago.
