Mushers, dog lovers converge atop Grand Mesa
For the love of dogs.
“You do it because you love it and the dogs love it,” musher Denise Edwards said during the recent Grand Mesa Summit Challenge Dog Sled Races. “There’s no money in it.”
In fact, according to Edwards, the costs of feeding, training, traveling and racing fees can be quite costly.
Edwards began sled dog racing more than 30 years ago and won first place in an eight-dog race about 10 years ago.
