Description:
The Iditarod trail plays out like a gauntlet: intrepid athletes--armed with a sled and 16 Huskies--must endure dangerous mountain passes, unforgiving forests, and frozen coastlines. This brutal Discovery Channel special chronicles the endeavors of 96 teams, capturing the moment they set out in Anchorage and following them to the finish line in Nome. This release includes the bonus feature EXPEDITION ALASKA. Review: 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.
