Jesse Holmes devotes all of his time, money, and resources to his team of sled dogs. Winner racing season will begin soon, and getting his dog lot in working order is a priority. This is going to be one clean open area with everything in rows. It's time to step this up.

The weather is completely changed; we're heading into early winter. The ground's freezing. I can't take this top layer of this ground off of these stumps out in the frozen ground, so timing is everything. It's like with anything up here on you.

"What up?"

"Hey, hey! How you doing, man? You ready?"

My friend's willing to help me right now; that's huge because this job that he's doing for me is not something that I could do myself. I don't own a piece of machinery. I've got way too many dogs that just have dogs thrown all over the place in the woods, tripping in holes. I mean, I'm liable to break my leg out here in one of these holes this winter and end my whole mushing career. This has got to become professional and organized so I can deal with it efficiently.

To actually be able to see all my main dogs that I'm going to be racing this year in one spot is going to be an exciting thing. Everything in a row is going to look amazing. It's going to make my life ten times easier.
