2019/20 Sled Dog Race Season

Summer is winding down, and before we know it it will be the fall training season. Mushers are no doubt counting the days to cooler temps and getting back to the dogs. The fireweed is in full bloom and tall, predicting an early fall and a deep snow winter (we'll see if that old wives tale holds true). With all of that in mind it's time to start paying attention to the 2019/20 Sled Dog Race season! Below are the dates and links to many of the races set. Most are Iditarod or Yukon Quest qualifiers, all celebrate one of the greatest winter sports.
