Churchill was the finish line for a dog sled race so challenging even those that come in last get rewarded.
13 mushers from all over North America competed in this year’s Hudson Bay Quest.
Committee Chairman Bill Dingwall tells us the quest is a self sufficient race, 220 miles long from, Gillam to Churchill.
Dingwall says its one of the only self sufficient races in North America where the musher has to get from Churchill to Gillam or Gillam to Churchill on his own, without assistance at any point.
The race takes days to complete, with this year’s first place finisher, Martin Massicotte, making it in at over 32 hours.
