Gunflint Trail Association

    

The Dog Sled Race was a huge success and fun was had by all. It was quite a sight to see all of the trucks and dog teams lined up on Devil Track Lake and an even better site to see the mushers scrambling out of their sleeping bags at the sound of the shotgun blast. It was an exciting start with mushers putting their boots on and then rushing to harness up their dogs and head across the lake. The finish of the race was just as thrilling as teams made their way across Poplar Lake to Trail Center. A big thank you to everyone who helped make the race happen.

      Now for more winter fun on the Gunflint Trail… Everyone is invited to participate in the 3rd Annual Winter Tracks Festival March 1-4 on the Gunflint Trail.
