@ Sled Dog in Training
Radar and Taki have been given a free map to help them enjoy their Winter Tour! Before unfolding it, they read the cover:
Winter Wildlife
A cute little fellow greets the pets this morning to herald the arrival of the morning's transport. The pets will pass wintry landscapes and greet all kinds of wildlife. They have the opportunity to explore bridges, a forest, a river and a snowbound wooden cabin before heading home in the sunset to that night's lodging. While passing the lumber store, they meet two more appealing little creatures keeping out of the cold. The pets then go inside for welcome bowls of soup and wind up their day by creating hot drinks with special chosen garnishes.
Sled Dog in Training
This pup may be young but he will learn much just by running alongside the team and hearing the musher call out the directions. Some day he may even be the lead dog.

@ Straight Ahead, Team!
Radar and Dustin shook paws, then looked around in awe, wishing they hadn’t already eaten their lunch! This was the most perfect place to spread the waterproof blanket for a picnic!

Straight Ahead, Team!
Eagerly jumping in their harnesses, the sled dog team lunges forward at the sound of the driver's command to "Hike!" The sled glides along the snowy path effortlessly thanks to the well-trained team. What seems like work to us is actually a great source of joy for a sled dog. Every time a musher decides to go out, every dog in the kennel is excitedly barking and jumping, hoping they get chosen to be on the team.

@ Snowy Bench
"Hey, Radar, how does a coniferous tree get ready for a date?" asked Mitsy.
"Tell me?" said Radar.
"It spruces itself up!" chortled Mitsy.
Snowy Bench
Hikers welcome a sight such as this during a long, snowy trek. Chances to sit for a bit to rest are far and few between on the trails. Benches in places like this are usually erected in memory of a loved one who enjoyed the outdoors or as an eagle scout project.

@ Fox on the Prowl
"Wasn’t it worth coming all this way, Radar," said Cherokee, "for this experience alone?"
Radar, admiring the scene they were now in, heartily agreed!
Fox on the Prowl

“Yes, such an energetic, enthusiastic bunch! A fun ride, though!" replied Radar.

Through the Frozen Wetlands
The carefully constructed boardwalk allows hikers to safely traverse the wetlands while protecting its inhabitants. While they are hibernating at the moment, at the first sign of spring, the environs come alive with the chorus of spring peepers and other critters who call this land home.

Squirrel in the Snow
I know I hid that corn cob somewhere around here but a recent snowfall has covered it up. Now I will have to check every lumpy spot in the snow to find it. Boy, will I be glad when I do! I'm hungry!

Episode 7/27

@ Snowy Cabin in the Forest
"This is fabulous, Penelope" enthused Radar. "I'll have this photo printed and framed and display it next to my plush seal that I got in the little gift shop near Snow Beach and the model of St Basil's Cathedral from Icon!"
"You'll have a fine collection of mementos, Radar!" said Penelope.

Snowy Cabin in the Forest
The freshly plowed path beckons you to the cozy cabin tucked into the dense evergreen forest. Oh, I can already feel the warmth of the wood-burning stove and can't wait to kick off my boots and relax under a warm quilt with a cup of hot cocoa.

@ Frosty-Nosed Welcome
Radar and Latte shook paws, then looked around in awe, wishing they hadn’t already eaten their lunch! This was the most perfect place to spread the waterproof blanket for a picnic!

Frosty-Nosed Welcome
Welcome to my neck of the woods! I know you'll love it here as much as I do. You don't happen to have a carrot in your backpack, do you? I could use a little snack as I've been sniffing around trying to find something to munch on under the snow.

Episode 9/27

@ Snow-Covered Fence
“I'm already looking forward to tonight's hot drink by the fire, Radar,” said Sir Fluffle Bottom.
"Hey, a snowshoe expedition will warm you up!" replied Radar.

Snow-Covered Fence
The snow-covered fence marks the border of this sparse remote land. With one lone tree off in the distance and no hoof or paw prints in the freshly fallen snow, there doesn't appear to be much activity here. Perfect, just the way I like it!

"Tell me?" said Radar.
"It spruces itself up!" chortled Pricilla.

Episode 12/27

@ Snowy Owl Solo
Radar opened his rucksack to find his hat. Skye could see Radar had a beret, a balaclava, a cricket cap, a Tam o' Shanter, a woolly bobble hat, a beanie, a deerstalker hat and a Peruvian chullo!
“Did you bring a Stetson too?” Skye asked Radar.
Snowy Owl Solo
A single snowy owl sits motionless on the ground. Under normal winter conditions, it would be well-camouflaged but the absence of snow allows us to catch a rare glimpse of its beautiful pristine feathers.

Episode 13/27

@ Snowy Stillness
“It would be great fun to camp in the snow overnight, wouldn't it, Oliver?” said Radar."In the morning you'd fill your kettle with snow and boil it suspended from a tripod of sticks, like they do in books."
Oliver shivered. “You must be fond of adventure books, Radar! I'd rather have four solid walls round me at night, actually!"
Snowy Stillness
A fresh snowfall has brought a beautiful stillness over the landscape. Leafless trees now have a fresh adornment.

Episode 14/27

@ Snowy Owl Duet
“If there's time at the end when we get back to our accommodation, I might do some initial sketches for a watercolour painting," Amara said, offering Radar a toffee from the bag and then unwrapping one for herself.
“That sounds like a good plan, Amara!" said Radar. "And very in keeping with the hygge theme!"

Snowy Owl Duet
Look whoooo stopped by. The solo snowy owl's mate. Looks like we get a double treat of beautiful white feathers as this species of owl is commonly spotted in the daytime, unlike its brown cousins.

Episode 15/27

@ Winter Guardian
“Last night's accommodation was amazing, Radar,” said Diana. "Those sofas! I'm looking forward to seeing where we'll stay tonight!"
"Me too!" replied Radar. "I'm certainly ready for a nice hot drink."

A faithful guardian sits at the ready to protect his territory. No critter may pass into his wintry realm without first getting by his watchful eye.

Episode 16/27

@ Making Tracks
Chica and Radar were musing on the concept of hygge.
“Is the reason there's no word for this in English because England is a cold, damp little island with an awful train service?"
Radar considered this. "Well, they could still go indoors out of the rain and curl up in an armchair with a good book and stuff."

Making Tracks
A lone skier and an unidentified hooman make tracks in the freshly-fallen snow. The nearby building provides a shelter for any adventuresome passersby that need it.

@ Woodpile Resident
unie was distracted by the sounds of loud rustling as Radar unfolded a very large tourist map, in the course of which he succeeded in knocking unie’s hat off. “Put that away, do!” urged unie. “We’re about to pose beside this amazing scene—the picture will be entirely of your map if you don’t fold it up PDQ!”
Woodpile Resident
Howdy! Just peeking out to let you know I'm snuggled in here in this woodpile to stay warm. There's plenty here for us to share.

@ Stuffed Concierge

"Well, I guess that's the point of travel, isn't it?" said Radar. "To broaden your horizons and so on."

Cool greys and flickering candlelight blend to create the perfect relaxing ambience.

Episode 24/27

@ Hewn Stone Game Room
“I was pretending to be an Arctic explorer in the husky sled on the way here, Radar,” revealed Finley.
"Is that why you kept yelling: 'Mush! Mush!' at them?" asked Radar. "Hey, what would happen if you shouted the wrong command and they suddenly did a U-turn?"
"I reckon we'd all be flung out headfirst into the nearest snowdrift," grinned Finley.

Hewn Stone Game Room
Anyone up for a game of chess? If not, there are lots of other games in the cabinet across the room. What is your favorite? Maybe it's in there.

"It's turned a bit cold, Radar, I'm going to put my beanie hat on," said Franz.
"Good scheme! I'll dig my mittens out as well," said Radar.

@ Cocoa Bar
Radar is tired out and ready to go home when Chipilona comes along. "Wow! You find a special prize!" says Chipilona. Radar turns round and found it was just behind them!
Frosty Butterflies
Butterflies are a universal symbol of transformation and change, as no creature undergoes such an amazing metamorphosis as the caterpillar to butterfly. On a spiritual level the butterfly is associated with the soul and rebirth. These delicate frosty butterflies with their wings rimmed in violet are a true delight.

Anything you could possibly want for your hot cocoa is in this handy tray. I'm just going to pile mine high with marshmallows and a piece of dark chocolate candy.
