DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery's web site, March 2009) Deep in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, the Iditarod trail plays host to the last great race. More than a thousand miles of icy tundra and arctic wasteland lie between the Alaskan cities of Anchorage and Nome. Jagged mountain ranges, dense alpine forests and windswept coastlines make the route between these two towns some of the most challenging terrain in the world. Through this competition, 96 teams will attempt to traverse more than a thousand miles of the most inhospitable terrain on the planet with 16 finely tuned dogs as an engine. Man and man's best friend must work together, care for each other, and play a disciplined game of strategy if they hope to be first to the finish line in Nome. For some the goal is to win, for others surviving would be a feat all its own. |
