Join us in one of the Midwest's newest and most inspiring adventures in the sport of mushing. Located in Upper Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula, the sled-dog races are centered around the warm and friendly communities of Calumet, Eagle Harbor, and Copper Harbor. From the shores of Lake Superior to the peak of Brockway Mountain, the region
offers picturesque trails, rolling back country, and an average 273 inches of snow-fall each year making the region perfect for a late season race.

As some of you many know from prior years, our online registration
system can be a little temperamental at time and PayPal can be sassy
with some people's credit cards, so please take your time as you move
through each step. If you have any problems, just give Meredith LaBeau a call at 517-974-8579, she is super helpful!
