Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race
On the first Saturday of March, the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race starts an epic journey. After a crown-pleasing "ceremonial start" in Anchorage, Alaska, the real race begins. The goal, for the 60+ mushers and teams of Alaskan Huskies, is to be first to cross the finish line 1,000 miles away in Nome!

Did you know that this epic race came about as a way to promote the Alaskan Husky and it's invaluable role in settling the early Alaskan Territory? Find out more!
