[DVD Details]
 
 
  • Deep in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness lies the Iditarod trail, home to the last great race. Jagged mountain ranges, dense alpine forests and windswept coastlines make the route between Anchorage and Nome some of the most challenging terrain in the world. In this competition, 96 teams will attempt to traverse more than a thousand miles 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.
  • EXPEDITION ALASKA
  • Alaska, America's last frontier, is a land of breathtaking diversity - mountains, ice fields, arctic tundra, mighty rivers and some of the world's most amazing wildlife. But Alaska is changing at an alarming rate. A team of some of the world's top scientists and wildlife filmmakers explores this remote and rugged landscape to document what impact global warming is having on the landscape and wildlife of this beautiful state.
