Best summit group selfie in a WHILE. This morning, a moody rainy hike up Little Deer Mountain, Groton, VT 🤍

Off on a slightly different type of adventure

About last weekend. #dogsthathike

We’re doing our annual “hike every day in May” challenge. First six days have been stunning!

Sunday. #RetiredSledDog

Life and work have been a little bit hectic lately, but we snuck north for a half-day hike Saturday! 9.5 miles on an out-and-back with ~4,200 ft of gain. This hike got 2 of the 5 peaks that we set as our spring goal 🤍 #dogsthathike #typetwofunclub

Me too, Snoopy.

We did have a very nice lazy woodswalk this morning, despite the drizzle!

This 3day weekend was supposed to be our big spring adventure. Weather cancelled it (tomorrow will be a nasty one up in the mountains). And you know what? Thats totally fine. Looking forward to a loungey weekend with lots of reading and dog snuggles. Its really nice when the pressure is off.

Peak weekend day. Hoping you find “Wylie snoozing with his lemon” levels of relaxation this weekend.

This morning was pretty.

The dogs and I ended our season the same place we started it—Prospect Farm trails at Jackson. Our first run back in mid-November was, and feels like, a long time ago. Saturday was good reminder that skiing is fun, even moreso when chasing dog butts. #retiredsleddog #WylieandWolfy #TypeTwoFunClub

Chasing some final ski miles for the season this morning. #retiredsleddog #typetwofunclub

My story from #ITIalaska this year didn’t capture 1/100 of the drama, the difficulty, the adventure, the community. Athlete-led rescues. A 5-day campout with a cooler of bacon. A team of 4 winners who were the only official 1000finishers. Then, for the people’s [unofficial] champion, there was this🤍

Hello friends. Warning: this is VERY long. #ITIalaska #RushTheITI type-two-fun.club/2026/03/23/i...

Four #ITIalaska bike co-champions: Ryan, Mayella, Kendall, and Erick. Mayella and Kendall’s rookie Nome Attempt results in a win, and Erick is the third ever to finish in all three disciplines. 🏆🏆🏆🏆 One athlete left: Gavan, on foot. Cutoff is 3pm Tuesday which he’ll miss for an expedition finish!

Proof that Wolfy has control of her batwings #ears #retiredsleddog

Not a drill 🚨 🚨 🚨 The #ITIalaska bikers are headed to Nome! This year was a freaking BATTLE and that anyone will finish is epic 🏆 Sorry I haven’t been sharing about the race here this year…my honest answer is I forget BlueSky exists 😂 I prefer the format and realtime discussions of discord

Hi.

@ilovepemmican.bsky.social ummm your Iditarod Fantasy Mushing team is *crushing*?!

Very Important Followup.

It is indeed Wolfy’s 11th birthday! We did her favorite longer flat loop in the Fells this morning but have yet to have her party 🥰🎉

Sorting through my photos as I write up my #ITIalaska 2026 experience and need to share this “high degree of difficulty” outhouse I stopped to document on the Yentna River. My only photo from that entire morning.

THIS IS NOW A MAELLA KRAUSE AND KENDALL PARK FAN ACCOUNT! #ITIalaska

The entire day, i kept marveling that i skied up every. damn. hill. In this section in 2024. After revisiting it, I have even less of a clue how I did it. Fellow skier Scott Parsinaeau and I were chatting after both scratching today and he told me he kept thinking of my 2024 write up on this leg 😂😂

It…be…hecking…WIMDY. The strongest winds ive ever been out in. What was a half-day trek in 2024 was a full exertion this year!!

This “camp spot” is shell lake lodge, a seasonal resort in the process of being rebuilt. They have guest ‘dry cabins’ with woodstoves and bunks, free for ITI athlete use. A great spot to rest up and dry out if you dont mind being in a 10x10’ cabin with 10 other stinky athletes 😂

Fyi this account is now a Doug Amidon fan account for the next 4 days 🙌🏼 #ITIalaska

#RushtheITI update - safe, warm, disappointed, happy. Never underestimate Alaska. More soon 🤍

New Blog Post: Raceday. See y’all on the other side ✌️ #RushTheITI #ITIalaska type-two-fun.club/2026/02/21/i...

Y’all, what should we name her? #RushTheITI #ITIalaska

Y’all, what should we name her? #RushTheITI #ITIalaska

Ahem… trackleaders.com/iti26f.php And therefore, finally, a roster. I think I have a shot at a top three women’s ski finish 😂 [there are two woman skiers] #ITIalaska #RushTheITI

A long, moody walk along Anchorage’s Coastal Trail.

Y’all!! Thank you!! 😭 Feeling the love and support from all corners right now. . 5 days until #ITIalaska #RushTheITI

Great news: Im settled in in Anchorage, where I’ll be until #ITIalaska race day. My lil’ spot here has immaculate vibes, is a 2 minute walk from a pristine municipal winter trail…and even has indoor plumbing!

This race starts and finishes at Happy Trails Kennel, home or Martin Buser. I had a nice long chat with Martin before race yesterday and he gave me one order before ITI starts: get fatter 😂. Dinner last night after the race:

Little Su number two on the books! Great weather, stunning scenery, and much cleaner race management than last time—a good reminder that repeating known trail is easier because it it allows for informed decision making. Let’s hope that holds true next week! [Photo 🧵] . 6 days until ITI Alaska start.

My hideaway for the next two days. First time I’ve stayed anywhere but the Dogstead when in the MatSu…for my 5th separate year of trips up here, it was just time for something new!

Guys look whats in my airbnb, a tiny house without plumbing just south of Willow, AK 🥰 #uglydogs

MY OOO IS ON!!! Woooooo!!! 🎉 -and- My babies are gone to Camp 😭

Its heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeere... or at least the placeholder page is :) #ITIAlaska itialaska.com/tracking

ITI is soon and the final race prep is commencing! Before things get too hectic, I want to share some things that will be different about #ITIAlaska this year, compared to when I raced it two years ago 🧵

This morning’s ski. No sled, just an easy 90min relaxing loop on my home trails. It felt like cheating 😂

13 days until ITIAlaska start.

Last slow morning before ITI: snuggles, sofa, coffee. . And my act of self care: purchasing a plane ticket to a friend’s destination wedding in Ireland! I always have one fun and very concrete plan set for after a big adventure, as a reminder that there’s more to look forward to beyond the goal 🤍🇮🇪☘️🐑
