Rumor or Reality? - Iditarod Reality Series

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

I believe this is related to the GPS musher tracking test (as opposed to the Original Productions work for Discovery).

"Deadliest Catch" is excellent -- if they do the same sort of work with the Iditarod, it should be very exciting!

"Deadliest Catch" is a great show. I'm looking forward to what they'll do with the race.
