    As a child I loved reading the stories of Jack London, and dreamed of one day visiting Alaska. That dream came true for me in April 2014 when I headed out to explore the north side of the 19 million acre Arctic National Wildlife Refuge on an Arctic expedition with “Malamute Man” Joe Henderson, and his formidable team of 22 Alaskan Malamutes who pulled two sleds of gear and equipment amounting to a staggering 2,500 lbs.
    It was one of the most challenging and amazing experiences of my life.
    As someone who is passionate about the breed, and the owner of two wonderful Alaskan Malamutes, this expedition was an amazing opportunity to experience firsthand a taste of the life that this extraordinary breed would have had in their native land.

    Great video; thank you for posting this. I have owned Malamutes for 20+ years. Jon did a great job describing the breed and why all true enthusiasts love them. I will add to his comments, that the Malamute's sunny disposition, temperament, and love for all humans is a testament to how well the Inuit people treated these dogs over millennia. Anyone who has spent time living with this breed can see they were truly loved and valued members of their families.

    Malamutes are amazing dogs. My friend has one named Santa and he's the strongest dog I've ever met. Santa doesn't pull a sled, but he really enjoys tug of war, and even my friends 7 year olds together can't beat him.
    Amazing dogs if you have the time, energy, patience, and climate for them.

    It's really nice to see malamutes in their natural conditions doing what they love !!
    I'd really like one when I'm older but I'm hesitant as I don't know how I'd give them this sort of freedom in Europe

    Saw the training video, I thought you will be travelling with your dogs to Alaska but nevertheless, this is super mega awesome! I was wondering why is there a malamute that's running behind, next to the sled. Is that because he's hurt and can't pull or is there another reason?

    Each US president needs to be brought here by dogsled so that they can learn why drilling for oil is pure greed. Drilling in a National protected area is positively absurd! Such beautiful animals taking in such a breathtakingly beautiful area! Mush on! Happy Trails! I also appreciate the fact that he is using a freight style harness on the dogs. Thank you for all YOU DO!

    Why are there any Eskimos with a Mahalamut? Why by Caucasians?

    I think its an animal abuse when one raises Malamutes in hot weather like California.
    Even hiskies should be raised only in very cold climates.

      I raised a Siberian in Hawsii. He did very well and enjoyed swimming in the ocean.
