About the Sled Dog Mail Run
The Seguin Sled Dog Mail Run has been running for 38 years. Every year since 1985, "sledvelopes" with letters prepared especially for this event, are gathered, loaded onto sleds and hauled by several dog teams to Rosseau, Ontario, 17 km through the bush on groomed trails. Teams gather and leave from the Village of Humphrey, Ontario, on Highway 141, to the cheers and good wishes from the many spectators and friends as the teams disappear in the bush on their way to Rosseau to be received by the Postmaster.
The "sledvelopes" are hand-stamped, a very old method of cancelling mail. These "sledvelopes" have become collector's items all over the world.
Below are some photos from our 2022 event.
Although the 2021 Seguin Sled dog Mail Run was cancelled, please watch the compilation video below which includes favourite video clips, personal messages and photos from the mushers and their beautiful huskies.
