Labrathon participants getting their fires started! (larger version)
If you were a trapper you'd have to pack your sleigh, snowshoe, light fires, boil water, put out your fire, snowshoe, shoot at targets, snowshoe, saw logs, set traps, snowshoe, cut holes in the ice and then snowshoe some more!

At the Labrador Winter Games this is called the Labrathon! This morning there were 6 finalists and the top three all set new course records. Bradley Rumbolt from Mary's Harbour won the gold with a time of 14:05! Followed by competitors from Postville and Cartwright.
