Old photos

I search through the various digital archives of Alaska from time to time and found this photo in the Ward Well Collection of the Anchorage Museum. It shows the last dog team carrying mail between Gambell and Savoonga on Saint Lawrence Island in 1963. Photographer: Ward W. Wells.

The black & white lead dog to the left (with big coat and huge feet) reminds me of a certain Malamute.

 Found another old photo in my own archives - Leia and Tuisku out in wet spring weather back in 2006. 

For some reason this photo really makes me miss Lapland....I must make a trip up there soon!
