Meet the 2023
Mushers

Damon Ramaker

Fountain, MN

I am a 41 year old dude who is looking to enjoy life to the fullest. My mushing story began with single dog skijoring and canicross eventually leading to the relatively small kennel of 20 dogs that we operate now. The bills have been paid for the past ten years by working as an emergency room nurse in Rochester. I am incredibly blessed to have a supportive wife and three children who not only tolerate this lifestyle but at times could be considered enablers. The only thing greater than running a team of dogs myself is watching my kids on the runners with smiles of growing confidence and joy.
