BOW Winter Event

Rayna was so excited to go! Oken watches her enthusiasm in amazement.

Among many other educational moments, our participants learned how to harness the dogs

Akai took complete advantage of the overabundance of attention

Our guests learned what the take off would feel like with mock dogs

Wimzi and Zodiak were the perfect pair.

We weren't back from our northwoods adventures but for three days before loading everyone up and heading out again. This time, it was to one of our favorite events; the DNR BOW (Becoming and Outdoors Woman) Winter Workshop. This year, it took place at Audubon Center of the Northwoods, an environmental learning center in Sandstone, MN.

Points Unknown has been providing volunteer dog mushing instruction since 2005 and we can't say enough good things about the BOW program. If you've ever wanted to try something new in the outdoors, check it out!
