The steam rises from your mouth as you walk out back to get your friends. As always your buddies are glad to see you. Soon they howl with delight, noticing you have your ski boots on. Time to go play Boys Howling songs of excitement fill the air. Were going Ski Joring! If you have ever donned a pair of Cross Country (Also called Nordic) skis, you realize the beautiful and serenity of gliding through the woods and fields. If you have ever taken your dog (or dogs) with you Nordic skiing, you quickly realize they love playing in the snow just as much as we humans. If you have ever grunted up a steep hill, watching you dog run effortlessly ahead, you may have thought If the dogs could just help me up those darn hills, we would both have even more fun, you were born to be a Ski-jorer. Skijoring involves the teaming of human and canine to travel over the snow. Ancient cave drawings in Europe show men hunting and traveling with Sticks on their feet. Traveling over snow with the assistance of skis as we call them, is about as old as mans need to travel over the snow. Similar cave drawings in Norway show an improvement to this mode of transportation. The same hunting figure with sticks on the feet are shown, with a clever addition. In front of the hunter is his companion animal. Between them is a line connecting the man to the animal. The first ski-jors

Extractions: by George Everett Long after the Christmas tree tinsel loses its sparkle and the pine needles fall, winter lingers on in Montana. Since most Montanans don't hibernate, we look for ways to avoid cabin fever. It's not easy to make yourself laugh, so we want the help of others to witness our tomfoolery. Like monkeys, we prefer the company of our fellows; we don't like to be left alone too long. First to line up each year are the truly insane who gather in scantily clad clusters beside frigid rivers and lakes. They have already made their point by simply stepping out of their parkas and Carhartts, setting aside their long johns and Mickey Mouse insulated boots. But no, that's not enough. They insist on making a further statement in the company of like-minded people, by jumping in between the ice floes. Such Polar Bear plunges take place around the state, often as a way to welcome the New Yearin my case I'm certain it would end the year abruptly with cardiac arrest. All Montana is area code 406.

Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary (Tenth Edition) lists it as one word, from the Norwegian ski plus , or "driving"). On the North American Ski Joring Association's web site, it's two words. I have also seen the term hyphenated on event posters, announcements, etc. For this article, I decided to go with the dictionary version. L.L.R.

Ski-joring Puts First-timer On Fast Track skijoring puts first-timer on fast track. Recently I tried a new winter sport becomingpopular with sado- masochists and their pets everywhere ski-joring. http://pingo.geology.uaf.edu/Simpson.html
Extractions: By Sherry Simpson Recently I tried a new winter sport becoming popular with sado- masochists and their pets everywhere: ski-joring. Well, in my case, it was more like ski-jarring. This is a sport thought up by people who own dogs that do what they say. I don't own any dogs like that, so my first introduction to the sport was at the invitation of my friend Kate, who said I could use a dog that understood English. Skijor-ing, for those of you who consider watching football a winter sport, is like cross-country skiing, only a lot more dangerous. You wear skies and the dog pulls you, which seems like a good idea until you realize you are tied to the dog in such a way that you cannot avoid any obstacles you may encounter: trees, moving trains and whatnot. It's kind of like marriage. "This will be really, really fun," Kate promised. "Last time I went with someone who had never skijored before, I took my camera so I could snap pictures of her falling down. I got some really good ones. " My husband, who would be skiing in our wake under his own power, said cheerfully, "I can't wait to see THIS."

As to quote - (Was it the "Talking Heads") I need to relate that " this ain't no picnic - this ain't no party - this ain't no fooling around " - this is a arctic event that will test you and your dogs - we want safety first and foremost. The second annual Nome - White Mountain 140 skijor race is tentatively set for April 19, 2003 . Race will start at 9 am at Farley's Camp with a mass start. Last year's weather was near perfect. Temperatures ranged from 30 degrees F as a high to 15 degrees F in the evenings. The wind was calm even through Topkok. Several inches of new snow fell between Topkok and White Mountian. Trail conditions were good for the most part- hard packed snow with some drifted areas. Overflow was a problem and did create one scratch ( I went for a swim). Race is held this late in the year to allow for longer days and less wind.
