"HALIBURTON FOREST AND WILDLIFE RESERVE, Ont.—“The first rule of dogsledding is to hang on, and the second is not to let go,” quips Emily Kurvell, our guide. She makes it sound easy, but looking at the 18 huskies yelping wildly and straining at their leashes, I’m more than a little nervous.
The younger drivers in our group don’t seem to have the same apprehension. Two young girls from Florida in shiny new snowsuits are jumping up and down and seem as eager to go as the dogs are.
“The dogs love it!” says Kurvell. “It’s what they’re bred to do.”"
