1925 North of Etah from Cape Hatherton sledging


Husky is a general name for a type of dog used to pull sleds in northern regions, differentiated from other sledge dog types by their fast pulling style. They are "an ever-changing cross-breed of dogs". The Alaskan Malamute, by contrast, is "the largest and most powerful" sled dog, and was used for heavier loads. Huskies are used in sled dog racing. In recent years companies have been marketing tourist treks with dog sledges for adventure travelers in snow regions as well. Huskies are also today kept as pets, and groups work to find new pet homes for retired racing and adventure trekking dogs
