Tag 2: Denali National Park Dog Mushing

On day two we travel north to where some of the best views of Mt Mckinley are. We drive dog teams into Denali National Park to Tokosha Mountain Lodge where we are hosted by John and Marissa Neil. After a relaxing lunch we go mushing, enjoying spectacular views of the pristine wilderness and Mt.McKinley. Handcrafted, hand lashed traditional wooden sleds designed for a rider sitting upfront and two mushers in standing position.  This allows an experienced musher to guide and teach novice mushers and allows for switching of positions.  Designed and built by Alex Murphy, MaineMade Dogsleds in collaboration with Dream a Dream Dog Farm.  Winter Fun at its best with great equipment to make our trails and rides truly inspirational. The evening and hospitality of the Tokosha Mountain Lodge top off a great day.



Tag 3: Willow - Anchorage

Vern grew up on a farm in Flandreau, South Dakota. He completed both his undergraduate and obtained his law school degree at the University of South Dakota. Vern moved to Alaska right out of law school. In Alaska Vern worked as a private attorney, a Magistrate Judge and as a Public Defender for the Alaska State Court System. He spent many of these years in “bush” Alaska where he fell in love with the people and sled dogs. In 1983 Vern ran his first Iditarod to see if he could complete the “Last Great Race on Earth.” He married Susan in 1986 in Nome, Alaska after driving his dog team over 1000 miles on the Iditarod Trail. For 21 years he has raced the Iditarod or Yukon Quest. He has placed in the top 5 of the Iditarod three times and the top 10 eight times. Vern is the 1990 Yukon Quest Champion and the 1989 Yukon Quest runner-up. He is dedicated to raising, training and racing the Alaskan Husky.  Over the past 10 years Vern has visited and spoken to over 400,000 students and teachers in South Dakota, North Dakota and western Minnesota. After a great breakfast we return to the trucks and head for home with fantastic memories and great photos!
