Sled and sled dogs

A classic Greenland wooden sled and several sled dogs in a small valley with a mostly frozen glacial stream filled with glacial till. Greenland sled dogs are one of the most isolated and pure dog breeds in the world. Several colourful houses dot the hillside. Ittoqqortoormiit, Scoresby Sund, East Greenland.

There are 12 dogs (7 in a bunch in the back, 3 in front of them, one behind the kennel, one over to the right and a 13th (white) dog behind the harnesses on the sled.

    Interesting seeing the wooden sled, awaiting more snow and ice. I see 10 dogs--is that the usual team, I wonder. I had wondered if you had gotten off your ship to land in the town--looks like you did!

    Outstanding shot that is well composed, Terry. My goodness, those dogs blend in. Had to look twice to see them
