Nooo, we didn't go to Greenland...but we did make another beautiful trip along the coast today, skijoring in the Bjuröklubb Nature Reserve with Tuisku and Titan.
In winter, this coastal landscape looks a bit like a slice of Greenland. Directly behind the hills the land
drops steeply into the ocean. We made sure we didn't get too close to the edge.

| The stunning miniature peaks are shaped by the ocean wind. But today was calm with hardly any wind at all. |

While skijoring we were on the outlook for the seal colony which can sometimes be seen on this part of the coast.
We didn't have any luck today, but hopefully later this spring we'll catch them sunbathing on the drifting ice. |
It's fun to navigate without a trail and it's also a good way to find out if a dog knows his left from right.
Titan is beginning to know his commands fairly well by now.

It's a beautiful stretch of coast in every season. Dogs are allowed when kept on a lead.

Beautiful scenery, you've really found a great spot to live with malamutes :) It' s said that mals pull better when the conditions are hard, with no trail or when there' s a heavy load behind them, etc.
They look like they' re in great condition too.
Sadly, our trip to Lapland had to be cancelled in the last minute, but there' s still quite a bit of snow in Helsinki and we should be able to train lots next week.
