TeamD Adventures

We are in yet another Dawson, this one in British Columbia. Keeping the windshield clear at speed was a tough job.

At the Whitehorse ice slalom today I had my first oops. I had a great first run, very fast but hit the snowbank in sight of the finish.

Hans got some pictures of me stuck and I’m sure he’ll proudly post those soon. I also suspect that the TeamD magnetic "Student Driver" will soon be placed on my car.

We finished up the Long Lake TSD (2nd run) this morning and headed back out to Schwatka Lake for the second round of the ice race. Tonight we’re headed up to Liard Hot Springs.

Dad Comden asked about the Saab’s encounter with a snowbank on the Tuk ice road. to see what we’ve done so far and keep up with any new goodies.
