Okay #uglydogs, for those packmates on the gang line, the voice on the runners says HIKE!
Raven does SO much for others and brings such light and kindness to the world. Right now, she needs help. ❤️
I know everyone is struggling but I need help. Due to my loss of income, dad & I are at risk of losing the house from debt. Any help/reskeet you can give me to hold onto this house until we're better situated to sell it vs losing it would be greatly appreciated.

Bler shared her team with us and we, as individuals, found ourselves mirrored in those amazingly driven, and amazingly goofy, pups.

And from their example we learned about pulling together.

About the importance of supporting your packmates.

About facing new adventures even in adversity.

And that being a bit silly was a balm for the soul when the world seems stormy and the ground is sharp.

So when we see someone in need, or a packmate is feeling down, the world is just being shitty...

We sing too.

And can’t help but wonder, will we reach 440 followers on bluesky during this years race? That would be fun!

#UglyDogs I heard someone said this isn’t a legitimate fundraiser. I wanted you to know it is 100-percent legitimate. It’s $50K to do Iditarod, and I’m not sure the total cost for Kobuk, but flying in Alaska is hella expensive as are supplies. Just make sure you get the link from a trusted source.
Q made a wedding registry for his Kobuk, if you care to sponsor dog jackets, etc! Or just read through for a glimpse into equipment. (I'm with his family and showed them this and his cousin pulled me aside, concerned, and said "Does Q know what watersports means?")

BraverMountain Mushing is having a wonderful 2025 mushing season and we would like to continue into spring with a visit to Kotzebue, AK (above the Arctic Circle!) for the Kobuk 440, a wonderful race (...

#UglyDogs Q posted a hilarious but needed “wedding registry” for the Kobuk 440. Donate if you can and at least read through it for a giggle if your finances are tapped out! www.zola.com/registry/bra...

Seeking greater efficiency or maybe stronger communication, Pepé finally went *over* Whip instead of under or around, and parkour-kicked off of his butt for leverage.

… and Whip knew which side of the line he’d been assigned after that. 😂

Ok #uglydogs buckle up for a Pepe appreciation story from a #BraverMountain friend, Jake Hway of Chilly Dogs sled dog Kennel in Ely MN. He runs sled dog trips with older/retired sled dogs. I have his permission to share screenshots of his Facebook post. 1/4 (sorry for the lack of alt text- long)

You don't have to give up because people tell you to. ❤️
The thing I didn’t know I needed most in the world right now.

You don’t have to give up because people tell you too.

You have everything you need within yourself and the people who believe in you.

@quincemountain.bsky.social you are an amazing human. Thank you so much.
They fucking did it. They mushed to Nome.

It's like Pepe was trying to tell you all along. She knew she was going to Nome and she knew that this was what Q needed. Little did she know how many others turned out to need this also. 😭

They made it to the start line. They made it through the finish line. With dignity, humility, grace and integrity. What an inspirational team of friends who travelled a trail and overcame - together. In their own way. Legends made. The story will be retold. The Spirit of the North is alive.

Hey #UglyDogs. I’m in awe of all the mushers who sign up to attempt this crazy race. But I’m also mortified by what the ITC has done to Q and other teams. Here’s what I posted on FB: 1/3

My suggestion to the Iditarod, form up a group of volunteers whose job is the red lantern pack. Anyone who has happy healthy dogs and wants to continue should get to finish. #UglyDogs we’re 53 years into this race, make a solution instead of killing dreams.

Wickson sent QYOO and PEPÉ a mushergram wishing them well and telling the latter to make sure she brought the former home.

#uglydogs This is from when Glory moved away to become a west coast porch husky & Hari said his farewell. I think it works for other kinds of parting as well. It also reminds us that our hearts remain connected to those we love, even when they are far away. Awooooooo!

Insider posted an interview with Q from his 24 at Kaltag.

Apologies for no closed captioning — I attempted independently but couldn’t get it to work.

Got super emotional watching Q this morning, and hoping he knows we're all with him and the dogs no matter what. #UglyDogs

I don't want the #uglydogs to miss seeing puppy Pepe
She is, she was REALLY a phenom young leader, had all basic “commands” down very young and led our second team for a couple races, we sold her to Bravermountain towards end of two year old season as was just shy of making our top 10 but thankfully she has thrived and been a great asset for BM❤️
