10th February
I've absolutely no interest in racing dogs but I hear the Yukon Quest sled dog race starts out from Fairbanks, Alaska, on Saturday and is scheduled to finish in Whitehorse in the Yukon on 20th February. Regarded as the most challenging race of its type in the world, there has been concern over how fluctuating temperatures this week may effect the trail, especially sections over the Yukon River.

I tidied an article submission to the British Mountaineering Council official magazine, Summit. The northern lights tried to push through with wispy spiral greens but the moon, still full and high, proved too bright. When moving like a thick baize curtain puppies howl unable to fathom what they're witnessing.
