skijoring
Animal-towed winter gliding
Skijoring is a winter sport in which a person on skis is pulled by a horse, dog team, or motor vehicle across snow or ice.
The skier holds a tow line or harness while being drawn at speed: We went skijoring behind the snowmobile.
Dog skijoring uses one to three harnessed dogs, while equestrian skijoring typically involves a riderless horse guided by long reins.
