We run tours at a local Non Profit Sled Dog Rescue and proceeds from tours go to Rescue efforts and volunteers. Your participation in our tour will help socialize a few rescue dogs and help them on their journey to their forever home. When you arrive for your dog sledding, we will meet a few dogs. These animals want love and they're not afraid to ask for it. Belly rubs and ear scratches, are all welcomed in this crew of love mongrels. After the initial greetings we'll make sure you are dressed appropriately, extra hats, gloves, jackets and snow pants are provided. Next we will have a safety talk about sledding. This is an interactive ride, sitting is an option, but we suggest standing for the full experience! Similar to riding a bike or going on a hike, we are not breaking speed records with these dogs, so great for even less active folks. The sledding will be approximately 20-30 minutes with time for photos. When the dogs are relaxed afterwards, we can take group and individual photos with your favorite pups or full team. Once we get back to the homestead you will be able to meet the rest of the dogs (kennel tour), and say hello to our friendly reindeer with a small walk and photos.

Depending on the season, here's what you may encounter: Witness the highly medicinal chaga mushroom emerging from a slowly dying birch tree.

Join your host, Megan, in learning how to cross-country ski on trails that start right from the door of your cabin. You can be a total beginner or an experienced skier looking for improvement. Megan was selected to spend four years on the National Nordic Team of PSIA (Professional Ski Instructors of America) where she traveled nationally and internationally from 2012-2016 teaching ski instructors. She co-authored PSIA’s Nordic Technical Manual. You will be taught by one of the premiere instructors in America. The cabin sits on a trail system with a perimeter distance of 15km and many interior loops. Each day’s route will be completely determined by the comfort and fitness of the participants as well as the weather and the grooming which is provided by the Kachemak Nordic Ski Club. You can either arrive with your own equipment or rent equipment locally from Homer Saw and Cycle. That cost is not included in the ski lesson cost. You will need to have your equipment in hand before the lesson begins. There is nothing as refreshing as an afternoon in the sunlight during an Alaskan winter and spring. Spending the day learning to ski in a non-threatening, comfortable environment with plenty of flat terrain to ski on is a fantastic way to spend the day and enjoy Homer! Other things to note You can be a complete beginner, no experience is needed for these lessons. You should let Megan know any health concerns or injuries that you are dealing with so that she can make you comfortable.

Bad weather forecast? Want a hands-on activity that is warm and dry yet surrounded by nature? Rabbit Creek Studio has large glass windows surrounding the pottery wheel-throwing area and is set in a relatively forested home lot on the South Anchorage Hillside. If you are lucky you may see moose or other wildlife on the property. In this 2-hour activity, you will get a tour of my professional pottery studio to learn all of the basic steps of making pottery and see where it happens. Then we will get our hands dirty and practice wheel-throwing a clay bowl or cup. Beginners are lucky if they are able to make something that is usable on their first try. But, you will have at at least 1.5 hour of practice. At the end of the session, you have the option to choose your best one or two pots, that I will trim, glaze (you pick the color), kiln fire and mail home to you (postage not included). The full session is 2-hours. If you are short on time, plan for at least one-hour to get a good feel for the pottery wheel throwing experience. This experience is great for individuals or small private family/friend groups. There are (3) three potters wheels available. But if you have a larger group ask about a clay hand-building and wheel throwing combination experience. Please send a message to inquire about groups or alternate times/dates.
