Umiak. Our fluffy guy. He was born at our kennel a Umiak. Our fluffy guy. He was born at our kennel and a part of our amazing U-litter. As a puppy he moved to some friends, Volker and Jasmine. At their place he was working as a full time sled dog. He made shorter tours and also longer transportation missions with Volker up in the mountains. Volker and Jasmine stopped with dogsled and Umiak come home to us again. At that time we was racing and he was a part of our racing team besides the full time business with guided tours. Umiak was amazing. Sometimes he was leading the team in a race and another time we made the work back in the team through a snowstorm. Next time he was sharing sausage with some of the kids that followed on a tour. When Umiak was older he started to lose his speed. At the same time Andrea and Alexander was searching for a husky. Umiak moved on and had some great years as a hobby sled and sofa husky. This autumn Umiak was too old to continue his life. He started to pee inside and something happened. Dogs can get dementia. We really miss this guy but we are happy for the time we could share with him. Today his son, Mike, is with us. A great guy that comes from Sanna and Patrik. We are really super happy that they decided to use Umiak for breeding so we could get Mike.

It’s still some wind and drifting snow. After on It’s still some wind and drifting snow. After one night in the cosy cabin, while the snowstorm has run over us, it’s time for leaving. We have to dig away snow to be able to find our sleds. Luckily it was a short snowstorm and we are heading down from the mountain into the sheltered valley. This picture is from Padjelanta National Park some years ago. We were on our way down towards Tarravalley. This was just a normal morning during a normal winter as a dogsled guide. People often ask me about global warming and the effects. My answer is almost every time that people in my age have always complained about the weather so you shouldn’t listen to me… It was always better back in the old days. Do I see some difference? To be honest. Not much! What I think I’m seeing is that bad weather (heavy snowstorms) are coming harder and faster when they come. It could be true but it could also be me who just has been more careful and avoiding to bad situations? Then next question. Do I believe in global warming? Isn’t that fact? It’s getting warmer. But I’m not sure if increasing consumption (more new electric sports car, wind turbines, new ‘green’ mining and so on) is the right way to go… I’m actually quite sure that saving resources is a little bit better way of thinking… What do you think? /Matti #padjelantaleden #padjelantanationalpark #nationalpark #dogsledding #adventurephotography #winterphotography
Work or some time off? I’m out with 10 of our do Work or some time off? I’m out with 10 of our dogs. We break trails, camping and creating some material for YouTube. Some days earlier Stina was out with a friend and that’s what our life is about this time of the year. Spending time on the trails and preparing the dogs and ourselves for the season with guests. No one has to force us to make this. It’s just a great life. This picture is from last night. I used a IPhone 13 (basic model). It’s really nice camera for night shooting. I really looking forward to check the material in my real camera. That’s even better…hopefully! /Matti
