George Attla, the Huslia Hustler.

(In days gone by. The dog team trails aren't that narrow anymore and many of the sprint dogs aren't huskies.)

Skiing wont be an issue.

2026

I think it's the best choice of the American bids, though Bozeman could do it, but they won't pony up all the money and I think Denver is too high. A lot of the events have attitude limits (I could be wrong)
Barcelona and Quebec city don't seem to be a good idea either.

ABV: 9.3%
IBU: 37

In an exciting collaboration, Midnight Sun and Modern Dwellers Chocolate Lounge—a local artisan chocolatier—designed and brewed a very special dark ale that celebrates our strengths—and weaknesses: sensuous chocolate, warm spice, fiery chili, provocative character and amorous mood.

Raw cacao powder and roasted cacao nibs add an earthy element. But every romance needs some spark. Modern Dwellers’ signature Mayan Spice blend provides sultry, lingering heat that seduces the sweetness of the malts.

Modern Romance is not for everyone but, for some, there is nothing else.

Starts today.

"The Iditarod Trail Invitational is the world's longest winter ultra marathon by mountain bike, foot and ski and follows the historic Iditarod Trail from Knik, Alaska over the Alaska Range to McGrath and to Nome in late February every year one week before the Iditarod Sled Dog Race. The short race 350 miles finishes in the interior village of McGrath on the Kuskokwim River and the 1000 mile race finishes in Nome. Racers have to finish the 350 mile race in a previous year before they can enter the 1000 mile race."
