Absolutely fantastic experience. We all enjoyed it, even the two 15-year-old boys. Even though I have physical limitations and couldn't do much, I was included in the handling and hooking-up of our team. I was a very happy rider on every trip we went out on. I would highly recommend the over-night winter camping. We were toasty warm in your wonderful sleeping bags. We went out on several runs, over the 2 days. The night run is the most beautiful, but we would recommend doing the last run on the 2nd day. It is included in the price and so well worth it. I enjoyed the opportunity to take pictures of these wonderful dogs. We have recommended MUSHERS to everyone we know, and will continue to do so. Have another Groupon for the overnight trip and we will certainly come again! Cindy Massolin

All tours include: * Experienced guide * Five-dog sled team * Sleds and harnesses

Adventurers must be at least 13 years old to drive a sled with a guide’s permission, or to participate in evening or overnight tours.

Leading teams of purebred and rescued siberian huskies, MUSHERS Dog-Sled Tours takes up to six participants on hands-on rides through local wilderness. Delve into a light sledding experience and command a pre-harnessed five-dog sled team on the one-hour Simply Perfect tour. Following a 15-minute tutorial on sled anatomy, turning, and braking, experienced guides lead groups on 45-minute jaunts over varied terrain and through occasional yeti flash mobs on snow-swaddled trails. On two-hour Just a Smidge tours, guides teach their protégés how to harness their dogs and assemble teams before instructing them how to drive the sled. Two riders take their places on each sled to traverse winter tableaux, stopping along the way to snap photos and pen heavy-metal albums about the landscape. At tour’s end, sled drivers glide back to the kennel to feed and reward their canine compatriots. One-hour Tiki Torch Trails tours lead adventurers on nighttime trail runs after a briefing on sled and team control. Lit by headlamps and glowing trailside rows of tiki torches, rider pairs and their five-dog teams carve the snow on a silent 45-minute tour, interrupted only by the sounds of the woodland creatures’ nightly pyrotechnics shows.

Drivers can also explore the challenge of a full-day and -night wilderness excursion on the Evergreen Dream tour. Up to six guests convene for a one-hour briefing where guides divulge safety information, technical sledding tips, and team-assembly instructions. Following winter survival lessons such as identifying the edible parts of a snowman, teams embark on a two-hour afternoon trail excursion and return to base camp in the early evening to care for their canines and craft their own starlit supper. Sled drivers get back on the trails for independent night runs, and retire to heated tents and weather-tested sleeping bags at night’s end to learn empathy for Jack London’s butler. After cooking their own breakfasts, drivers lead dog teams on a final two-hour morning run. Drivers and riders keep the same teams for the duration of their trip, and may check in with guides for assistance at any time.

The accomodations left a little to be desired; although I think it could have been improved if we had been invited to bring more with us. But honestly, I expected to be roughing it, so didn't have a big problem! Otherwise, it was completely amazing!

Better advise people what an overnight adventure consists of. ie come to the location with winter clothes on (assumed there would be a place to change other than car when driving in from Toronto - its a little far to come bundled up ready for dog sledding). Also more information on winter camping. For those who have not done it, it is a culture shock and would be better if told about constantly stoking a fire (means poor sleep if you plan to drive home the next day!) Would have taken a hotel near by..
