What’s Included: Plan to arrive 5 minutes early to go over paperwork and a brief safety presentation. Guests are then loaded into a dogsled pulled by a team of Siberian Huskies and driven by one of our experienced guides. We’ll start off by running along the edge of an open meadow, before following the trail into the woods on our way to a second opening for great views of the mountains and resort. After making a stop for photos and to meet the team, we’ll head back into the woods and traverse a small ridge before returning to the starting meadow. Along the ride there will be photo opportunities with the team. Trail time is approximately 40-45 minutes, depending on weather conditions. At the end of the tour, we will return to the staging area to warm up and meet more dogs! We will then part ways to prepare our dogs for the next tour.

No Snow & Off Season Options
In the event there is not enough snow to form a safe dogsled trail, we will offer an alternative dogsled presentation and husky meet & greet. Each presentation is an hour long and features a history of dog mushing and Jackson Hole. We also include an interactive gear setup, which allows guests to stand on the runners of the sled, and an in depth look at the different dog breeds used in this sport. Each tour ends with a chance to meet and cuddle some of our star employees (a.k.a. our dogs). Contact us for more info on presentations and no-snow pricing.
