- Deep in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness lies the Iditarod trail, home to the last great race. Jagged mountain ranges, dense alpine forests and windswept coastlines make the route between Anchorage and Nome some of the most challenging terrain in the world. In this competition, 96 teams will attempt to traverse more than a thousand miles with 16 finely tuned dogs as an engine. Man and man's bes

DVD Review: Makes the Iditarod Come Alive
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered this video after reading Gary Paulsen's (?) book, Winterdance. It was like two views of a stereoscopic picture. Winterdance gives you a real sense of the risk and foolhardiness of dog-sledding...and what the passion of it is. 'Iditarod' gives you a close up view of the people who are sold out to it...and not just the race, but the lifestyle. I go on Iditarod websites now, and read the roster of mushers and I feel like I know a lot of them. I'm asking myself, "I wonder what Lance will pull this year? Does Jeff King still have enough to stay at the front? Is Darin going back out there?" These are people I know now, and I'm cheering for the home team.
Give yourself a bit of adventure and buy this movie. Everytime, I need an outdoor fix, and can't get away for a hike, I pull out this video. It's not the same as being on the trail...but like most of the people out there...who knows where you'll wind up.
I may have passed my prime to actually run the Iditarod, but I'd love to join one of the trail teams or support teams that make the Iditarod possible. Open yourself up to a world where the Spirit of Alaska still runs free!
