Dogsledding is where a team of usually eight dogs are harnessed to a special sled, to pull it over snow and ice. The sled usually carries at least one person, to direct the dogs, and supplies for the driver and dog team, and sometimes small freight. It is now a sport, where different teams & their drivers race to a specified destination. Dogsledding started (in the regions in and around Alaska) as a means of transportation.
