Rare sighting of 'The Trail Thing' caught on video

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 love that song! So funny. I hope GB is doing OK, I still miss his presence around the race. I would have loved to be his rider!

Saw it on the live feed from Nome. It's definitely a dog and not a bear. An Alaskan Saluki?
