North Alwen Saturday 2004
North Wales - first of two, day rallies at separate venues - across the road from each other
Date: 21 Feb. 2004
The course will be similar to last season - hard packed wide trails which are typical of Welsh forest, however, by popular demand of the dogs, we will be incorporating parts of the trail where mushers have to work - not accessible to vehicles. Does Wales have hills?!!
