Only in Alaska...


Only in Alaska..., originally uploaded by aimos325.

Only in Alaska do they stop traffic for dogsleds... This weekend is
the North American Classic-- the oldest continuously run sled dog race
in the world. I hear they're shorter races, just sprints compared to
the Iditarod.

I was going to suggest traffic lights at the dog sled intersections, but with dogs just seeing black and white, that wouldn't be such a great idea.

...Only in Alaska!! Have you seen many other teams in the area??

Cool! I'd love to stop and watch! (In fact, I do when I see that race in the U.P.)
