Handler for Finnmarkslöpet wanted!

We need a second handler to help at Finnmarkslöpet. Angela will follow to the race as a handler but we need one more person who has a drivinglicence and who would love the adventure and excitment to experience a race really close up.We know it's short notice but If you ore annyone you know would like to help please send us an e-mail to info@petterkarlsson.com We will leave Slussfors on the 1 of march. Another possibility would be to fly to Alta and arrive there no later than 3 of march. Of course we would pay for all the expences for the handler. We travel back home on the 13 of march.

At the Finishline!


Petter passed the finishline with 8 dogs after 76h and 45 min. He came in as #11.

Under the circumstances that I had at the start I think I did very well, Petter says.
Now I know for sure that I have a good team.

Kokos is good! As usual she was the one taking us to the finish, many km in singel lead. She's super!
A great dog that has given me many good puppys.

Now it's time for some well deserved rest for both handlers, the dogs and Petter.
