Summer on the Alaska Railroad

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!
