About The WolfTrack Classic Sled Dog Race
Our Race: A premier mid-distance sled dog race spanning 130 miles through Northern Minnesota's State Trail system.
Our Mission: To present an annual sled dog race, conducive to generating tourism and promoting education, that follows the spirit and proud history of the working sled dog in Northeastern Minnesota.
Our Participants: Eighty-five (85) mushers, six-hundred and ten (610) sled dogs from Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, North Dakota and Canada.
Our Volunteers: Over Two-hundred Fifty (250) individuals dedicated to the safety of the sled dogs, the participants and our spectators.
Our Spectators: Over Two-Thousand winter sports enthusiasts from all over the U.S. and Canada.
This will be the third running of the WolfTrack Classic Sled Dog Race in Ely, MN. Just like the past two years we are expecting an exciting and entertaining race. (We just need lots of snow!!) We are looking forward to extending our 60-mile race to a longer 130-mile race. The added mileage will increase the difficulty of the race, and should attract some more experienced mushers. The 30 mile race should be a close race just like last year, the first 4 teams across the finish line were only six and a half minutes apart.
