Iditarod

 **Iditarod** ** The Greatest Race on Earth!! ** Join my class as we take a tour and ride through the greatest race on earth. All the places I have been, no place on earth provides the cool crisp artic tundra, the dances of snowflakes, the howls of barking dogs, and the tranquil peace of the sleds running through the snow. Mushers who are friends among friends rely on the keen sense of their dogs and companion versus competitor to race in the most intense and rugged race. The greatest race on Earth!! Enjoy the sites listed below!
