Join us on a 7-day extensive learning trip just for gals! This trip will take mushers from Cantwell to the lodge on the famed Denali Highway.
This popular trip is back with two trips planned. We like to keep the groups small, so we have maximum of 6 mushers per trip. Learn how to mush your own team and meet some of the 1000-mile canine athletes. No prior mushing experience is necessary but you must be active and relatively fit.
Four Expert Human Guides
Learn to mush and travel through the remote Alaska Range led by exceptionally accomplished, professional, and experienced guides. Safety and fun are the top priorities with a ratio of FOUR guides to six guests.
