Experience the heart of Alaskan winter with us as we spend the weekend immersed in the thrilling Knik 200 Joe Redington Memorial Race, an Iditarod qualifier celebrating the legacy of the "Father of the Iditarod." We kick things off at the starting line, soaking in the excitement as mushers and their incredible sled dog teams embark on this grueling 200-mile journey through Alaska's breathtaking wilderness. From there, we hop on our snowmachines and ride out to the middle of the course, cheering on the teams as they power through the lower Susitna Valley at sunset. The adventure doesn’t stop there! Early the next morning, we return to witness the race to the finish line. Few events capture the spirit of Alaska in winter quite like a sled dog race, and we’re thrilled to sound the weekend chasing this race and share this iconic experience with you.
As always thank you for watching. See you next week.
