MULTI DAY DOG SLEDDING ADVENTURES

4-7 Days | January - April

Our multi-day dog sledding expeditions take you to little-known, magical places in Interior & Arctic Alaska, the traditional lands of the Dena & Inupiat peoples. We weave together time with Siberian Huskies, pristine wilderness areas, Alaskan-style meals, cozy accommodations, and abundant opportunities for Northern lights viewing.

AURORA OVERNIGHT TOURS

The perfect Alaskan dog sledding experience -- drive your own dog team over the frozen summits and snow-laden forests of the White Mountains National Recreation Area to a hand-built log cabin or heated tent camp - complete with a view. It is one of the best places on earth to view the northern lights.

TESTIMONIALS

I can't describe the feeling of moving along the trail with the dogs pulling together in front of me, and in such a gorgeous expansive land - it's one of those "I can't believe I'm so lucky as to be here" moments. And I had many of them.
