Assuming you're sleeping there, where are the shelters for the sled dogs?

Those temps are probably fine to run them in, but are too cold for sleeping outside unsheltered...

    They had tons of straw and special warm blankets. Huskies are ok in these temperatures. Everyone was happy and fine. Except me going to check on dogs throughout the night. When the fire went out in the stove, it was rough to be going out and in the sleeping bag. Doing it again on Monday, but it should be nice -16.

    Pretty sure they just sleep outside, maybe with a blanket or something. They're super well adapted to cold.

    My gf's half husky (not purebred) will sit outside in -30 for an hour and a half without complaint. In fact he complains when he has to come in
