Friendly trail for snowmachiner

I experienced some snowmachine failure last Sunday afternoon and was separated from my party while out on the trails in Knik.

As I was starting to get my exercise on a very long walk, Wayne Curtis, a dog musher who was racing on Sunday, took the time to carry a bag of supplies I had with me up the trail, even though he was in the heat of a race. After a little more walking (and some cursing, because of the imminently long walk ahead), a group of snowmachiners stopped to get me up to my boyfriend who had a team of dogs (which never experiences mechanical failure). So thanks to Dave and his snowmachining posse, and thanks to Wayne and his Siberians.
