While many youngsters are uncomfortable being in a sled by themselves, Adam was raring to go and enjoyed every minute of his solo run as a passenger.

The Belden family during an Open Dog Yard event

We were happy to be able to host the Beldon family on numerous adventures during their stay at Gunflint Lodge. Adam is 5 years old and already has a passion for sled dogs. He wanted to know everything there was to know about them and soaked up everything we gave him! The family went on two separate adventures, attended numerous Open Dog Yard events and attended an evening dog mushing presentation during their stay.

"Hi Linda,

I just wanted to send a note to thank you for the great time two weekends ago with the dogs. Adam had the time of his life. Liz and Helen were so wonderful to him and did a great job making it special. We also loved meeting Ilu and he is of course Adam's favorite of your dogs. 

A friend of ours loaned us his skijoring gear this weekend and Holly pulled Adam around on our sledding sled and everyone had a blast! Holly has always been a puller on walks, and she did great with the harness.

Thanks again for such a great experience.
