Set amid the coastal Chugach Mountains, Anchorage defies popular visions of polar ice caps and frozen tundra. It’s also warmer than you think (averaging 65 degrees in summer), making conditions ideal for sight-seeing or taking on uniquely Alaskan opportunities like arctic biking or touring the fjords of Prince William Sound. In the winter, you can ski, dogsled or do both simultaneously by "skijoring," which is cross-country skiing while being towed by a dog. Hey, it's no crazier a winter sport than the biathlon.

Attending the start of the race twice has been a highlight. I never would have thought it is as reasonably priced as it is to attend the start. All the participants are so nice and their dogs are so well cared for. Attend the mushers' banquet and autograph time beforehand. This is like attending dinner with both teams and Hall of Fame members the night before the Super Bowl.

On our Alaska trip, we rented bikes from 4 different places (and we often rent bikes when we travel), and this was by far the best rental place/experience we've had! Mini Pablo was very kind and helpful, showing us a map of the area and where to go/things we might see. The bikes were in great shape and we were lucky that he gave us each a fender for the rear tire, as it had been raining. We rode the Coastal Trail and saw a bunch of moose up close and it was really fun!
