Willow, AK, USA
Linwood Fiedler, 57, was born and raised in Vermont. He received his BSW at Carroll College and his MSW at University of Montana. He began dog mushing in 1980 and lived in Montana before moving to Alaska in 1990. He says he moved to Alaska to "experience Alaska and to run the Iditarod." For the last 11 summers, Linwood has operated a glacier tour business in the Juneau area. Lindwood says, "Sled dogs have become a way of life. I've surrounded myself with these wonderful animals 12 months a year. In the summer we do tours on a glacier and in the winter we travel the wilds of Alaska for our own enjoyment. I owe much of my happiness to these wonderful dogs." When asked about hobbies outside of dogs and mushing, Linwood says, "Is there anything else?" Linwood and his wife Kathi are the parents of three, Justin, Dalton, and Christi. Learn more at Linwood’s website: http://alaskahelimush.com/
