Mylène Pronovost is what you would call a guide of all trades. In the winter time - hold on to your tuques - she's a dogsled musher.
The company Mylène works for, L'Univers du traîneau à chien, has over a hundred dogs for their winter dogsledding tours and offers other outdoor activities in the warmer season. Did you know? Foreigners made over 19.6 million overnight trips to Canada in 2000. Mylène keeps a full slate of projects, starting with being a canoe guide during the summer. She'll be checking out the parks and rivers in Western Canada, then perhaps moving to South America to work as a guide. This is work? back
