Dubois Dogsledder Billy Snodgrass completes 2010 Iditarod !

You can’t compare it to any other competitive event in the world! A race over 1150 miles of the roughest, most beautiful terrain Mother Nature has to offer. Racers and dog teams negotiate mountain ranges, frozen rivers, dense forest, desolate tundra and miles of windswept coast. Add to that temperatures far below zero, winds that can cause a complete loss of visibility, long hours of darkness and treacherous climbs, and you have the Iditarod.
