Did you know that there are four different sled dog position types on a dog sled team?

🔹Lead Dogs: One or two of these dogs are at the front of the team. These are the smartest dogs in the dog yard, as they must respond to the musher's verbal commands, follow the trail, and set the pace for the team.
🔹Swing Dogs: Two swing dogs are directly behind the lead dogs. These dogs follow the lead dogs, help set the pace and turn the sled around corners.
🔹Team Dogs: You can have two to six of these dogs on your sled. These dogs provide the horsepower for the sled.
🔹Wheel Dogs: These dogs are placed directly in front of the musher and sled. These dogs tend to be the strongest on the team as they are required to work harder to get the sled moving after it's stopped.

All of our winter multi-day adventures in Churchill include the opportunity for guests to come and learn about dog sledding and race through the boreal forest on a dog sled.
The dogs of Wapusk Adventures can't wait to meet you!

What shape do you see? Let us know in the comments!

The pattern and shapes of aurora are determined by the changing flow of charged particles and the varying magnetic fields. Aurora are constantly changing shape and no two patterns are alike.

📷The first known aurora photograph was taken more than 125 years ago by German physicist and astronomer Otto Rudolph Martin Brendel on Jan. 5, 1892, in a black and white photo. However, technology has come a long way, and photographing the northern lights is much more accessible with newer cell phones that capture images of the aurora borealis.

If you want to photograph the northern lights join us on a Photo Adventure: Northern Lights trip in Churchill this February or March!

Though they may only be about the size of a house cat, arctic foxes are incredibly well-adapted for enduring the harsh winter environment of the subarctic and arctic.

They are among the smallest mammals to stay above the snow surface throughout long and cold northern winters. Beneath their thick fluffy fur, arctic foxes only weigh in around 10 pounds!

Meet Photo Specialist Guide Ward Cameron! 📸 When he’s not in Churchill capturing polar bears or northern lights with guests, you’ll likely find him exploring the Canadian Rockies. As a Photo Specialist Guide, Ward excels at helping guests create stunning photos of their Churchill adventures—memories that will last a lifetime.

The bears have been dancing and putting on a show for our guests. While polar bears in the Western Hudson Bay population (Churchill’s bears) are typically solitary for most of their lives, they may engage in sparring with each other during the autumn months as they wait for the sea ice to form. However, once the sea ice arrives, any sparring that occurs will not be so friendly, as males compete for breeding opportunities. Everyday out on the tundra is unique and you never know what you might see! Learn more about polar bears by visiting our friends Polar Bears International 📸: Alex Cupeiro
