Biography

Guillermo Anton, 17, is an exchange student from Spain spending this year with the Jim Lanier family in Chugiak. He says, “Right away I come here they bring me to all kind of outdoor activities, (fishing, hiking, hunting and mushing.) So I just loved it and I want to keep on doing it.” Guillermo began mushing last August because “I wanted to do something special.”

He ran the Jr. Tustumena and came in place and won the award for the best checkpoint efficiency. A junior at Steller Secondary School in Anchorage, he participates in gym hockey. He says he likes music and all outdoor sports. After high school, he wants to become a veterinarian and come back to Alaska to live and hopefully keep on mushing.
