Alaskan Huskies

In Juneau, the capital city of the largest state I took a helicopter ride to a glacier where a sled dog camp is stationed the whole summer. These dogs are real sled dogs that compete in the Iditarod race. The mushers leave their dogs at this camp for the summer. While here the dogs take tourists on tours of the glacier which is good exercise for the dogs and great scenery for the tourists. These dogs are very strong and ready to run, and the temperature on the glacier during my visit was 70 degrees, while the dogs are used to freezing temperatures.
