Iditarod athletes star during the sunny months too

« Return to story

Jen Podzemny races around an oval against another performer in the Seavey family's Wildride Sled Dog Show near Ship Creek in downtown Anchorage. The Wildride show is one of several summertime activities set up so visitors can experience Alaska's state sport -- dog mushing.

Karen Fortier, kennel manager at Denali National Park, prepares a team of the park's sled dogs for a brief run.

Tourists enjoy the sled dog rides at Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race headquarters in Wasilla. Summertime rides are $10 and are available 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily.
