Riding at the speed of dog
Absarako Dogsled Treks
For Absaroka Dogsled Treks owners Mat Stimpson and Hannah Vogel, that first ride through the Montana backcountry was more than a heart-racing experience.
“I will never forget that very first ride in Montana,” said Mat.
“Seeing the dogs in their very natural state truly doing what they were born to do, and I remember having the feeling that I too was doing what I felt I was born to do at that time."
The film explores the many ways that the Montana landscape inspires Mat, Hannah, and their dogsled companions—both on and off the trail. From traveling along scenic mountain passes to taking a wintertime swim in Chico’s local hot spring, the Absaroka Dogsled Treks team proves that living in the moment is easy when you’re doing what you love.
