Be sure to do it regardless of the weather !
A few winters ago, I spent a half day at a kennel in the U P of
Michigan -http://www.natureskennel.com/index.php . I signed up for a half
day at the kennel which included instruction and several hours driving a 6
dog team along both public and private trails. It was in the 5 to 15 degree
f range but I really never noticed the temp once I got out on the trails.
It was such a great experience that last year I signed up for their race
package where the kennel provided all gear necessary, 4 of their sled dogs
and transportation to a nearby sled dog race. It was an 8 mile race for the
4 dog teams and I was able to complete the race in under an hour. What a
hoot.
Highly recommended for any one that enjoys the winter.
BTW, Nature's Kennel is run by a musher and his wife - he has successfully
competed in several Iditarod races in Alaska and has usually been the
highest placed finisher from the lower 48.

A nice pic and a beautiful dog.
Especially interesting to me, as my wife and I will be going to Ely,
MN for a few days for our 34th anniversary. On the day of we will be
getting our first taste of dogsledding. Looking forward to it, even if
the high temp for the day is supposed to be 2 F. I think these people
who take warm weather cruises/vacations in the winter are nuts. They
come off the plane to winter again and dread going to the place where
they live the other 50-51 weeks of the year. Our philosophy is: Go to
Ely, MN for a winter vactaion, where you will come home with a little
perspective on cold temps and winter. ("Gee it's great to be back
where the temps are 15 degrees warmer!")

Agree with Bruce completely. You really exposed the snow nicely. Tough
not to get blown out and properly expise subject at the same time.
Wonderful shot!
Cheers,
