Simon Mettler
Originally from Switzerland, this will be Simon’s third winter in Two Rivers. The last two winters, Simon handled for our friend and neighbor- Smokin’ Ace Kennels. Last winter, even though Simon was working at Smokin’ Ace, he lived here at Ryno Kennel with RK handler, Mandy. When Smokin’ Ace Kennels opted not to have a handler, we scooped him up! This year, Simon is signed up to run in the Quest 200, which will be his first multi-day sled dog race! Simon’s main focus will be training the race dogs.
When not mushing, Simon likes exploring with his dogs Midnight and RK retiree Perm, playing Magic against his fiance Mandy, climbing in Switzerland, and doing nerdy things like watching Anime (which I say very affectionately).
