  Update regarding rule change! Due to the fact that we received signals of concern regarding the reindeer husbandry in the area of the competition from, among others, Strömsund Municipality, we judged that this change was needed to strengthen the safety around our dogs and thus our possibilities of being able to continue organizing the Beaver Trap Trail in the future as well. The organization takes the issue and concerns seriously, given that historically we have not had any conflicts with interested parties. What we really want to strengthen is that the dogs lie on wire line during rest at the checkpoint or the tracks, but since the majority of teams rest their dogs on the neck lines, it was natural to set the requirement for wire neckline.
