Dog Sledding near Breckenridge, Colorado

Sandra and I were married in Breckenridge, Colorado on February 4, 2022. We spent 5 nights at the Beaver Run Resort in Breckenridge. One of the most amazing adventures was a Dog Sledding tour with Good Times Adventures. Get to the site early so you can meet all of the dogs, kiss the dogs, pet them and take tons of pictures!! Then! You run and ride with the dogs! The dogs love running and pulling the sled! Everyone, including the dogs are smiling and laughing. You ride through the pine trees and the mountains loom over you. What an amazing Experience!
