very nice time.

We were
especially happy that Bielkersmils Artemisia of Kartman was awarded Working
Samoyed of 2012 since we believe she is the most successful working Samoyed in
long distance. She went mostly alone in the lead as Håkan participated and
completed Femundrace 400km(248,6miles) in year 2010 and in the lead a couple of
weeks later as Håkan won the Polardistance 300km(186,4miles) Nordic style
against Alaskan Malamutes, Greenland dogs and Siberian Huskies. She was in the
lead for about 1800km ( 1118miles) as Håkan and I went for our expedition from
Särna to Treriksröset and as Håkan and a sledge team finished a 32km
(18,64miles) race in less than 2 hours (which is probably the shortest time for
a Samoyed team ever in this distance).
