Jaime, A Park Ranger in Denali, and Allen wait in front of our train

Every Monday through out the summer Allen and I work on the Alaska Railroad. We ride the scenic double decker Princess Rail cars for 60 miles through the Alaska Range. We travel into Denali National Park and often witness the glory of Mt. McKinely or the antics of the Alaska grizzly bear or moose.

While the train travels north, we walk through the cars and talk to over 400 Alaska visitors every week. We tell stories and talk personally about our lives with sled dogs. People seem to really enjoy our presentation. Often we need to pull ourselves away from these great folks who want to learn all they can about Alaska life.

Hopefully, most of these folks are future Iditarod enthusiasts and more specifically, SP Kennel Fans!

  • Gosh, what fun! I can't think of a better way to spend a summer day in Alaska! Having spent time with you two, I know the folks on the train love you to pieces! Hope you get some good sponsors for the wonderful Iditarod dogs!

  • Oh nooo! I was on the railroad in the winter! Of course you weren't working there, because you were preparing for the Iditarod! Woul love to travel 12 hours while listening to your stories! 🙂
