GCI Open North American
GCI sled dog race is all this weekend. It is a fun community event because the start is right on second street downtown and then on the river, the curvy slough and creamer's field.
A team of sled dogs heads back from the 20 mile course, this picture coming from the slough on the chena river.
Julie, Kumi and I cheering a sled dog team on about 1 mile into the race.
Here is the start of the race downtown Fairbanks. The pace is crazy fast, it is a sprint dog race not like the 1000 mile Iditarod and Yukon Quest. I guess it would be the equivalent of a crit in cycling. Of course we also took in a few ice sculptures and the fur auction.
