The first major sled dog race in Alaska was the All Alaska Sweepstakes. The race was run from Nome to Candle and back. No checkpoints, no layovers, no Iditarod Air Force.
The race ran from 1908 to 1917.
In 2008 a 100th Anniversary Race was run following the original rules. These covers honor the race and Dog Mushing in Alaska. |
