Northern Mush!.............is a photographic journal, as seen through their eyes and hearts alongside "Isobel the Blind Sled Dog" and their energetic canine friends. Photographers Kimberley Friesen & Jenafor Azure captured special moments in the busy lives of Gerald and Jenafor Azure as Bed & Breakfast host and tourism operators, in the remote and isolated community of Churchill, Manitoba...the Polar Bear and Beluga Whale Capital of the world.
This Northern Mush is a celebration of the human and animal bond, which still exist between a sled dog and their musher, a rapidly disappearing form of traditional transportation. Despite formidable challenges in a diverse and ever changing environment, they share shared their images and a few coveted recipes...... as they learning to adapt to change, stay active ,and find a healthy balance physically mentally and spiritually.
