EXTREME Adventuring requires us to have the capabillties and training to be able to traverse almost any terrain. From chains on the vehicles inclding the bike like atvs I work the dogs on to the vehicle we use to get to our destination. In addition I always have available and use as situations warrant, dog booties and pad wax. The dogs pads are conditioned for this type of adventuring so artificial protection is not usually needed.

Situations in the moutains as we are running here can change almost instantly as most of the places we have NEVER been to before, and of course as altitude changes there can be large swings of temperatures and precipitation. In the feature video we are in Green Ridge State Forest in Maryland which is very secluded and in some areas uncharterd!
