Learn About Our Winter Tours

THK is an an elite team of canine athletes and two mushers. Together, we travel Alaska’s vast wilderness, race the 1,000 mile Iditarod, and introduce Alaskan visitors to our amazing lifestyle. We are passionate about what we do and have had our hard work rewarded through improved race records, awards for “best dog care,” and great reviews  about our tours from our many visitors.

The Iditarod Sled Dog Race

We are a professional racing kennel that focuses on the Iditarod, a 1,000-mile-long dog sled race. A dog sled team in the Iditarod is comprised of 16 dogs and one musher. Travis has competed in the Iditarod nine times, with his top finish being 5th place. Sarah has competed in two Iditarods, with her best finish being 34th. Travis will be competing in his 11th Iditarod race in 2025.

Learn About Dog Sledding

Our passion is teaching people about dog sledding, the Iditarod, and our kennel — that’s why we run tours. We know that not all those interested in the sport can reach us, so learn about mushing by following our blog!

Our Dogs

Our dogs are the heart and soul of what we do. We pride ourselves on having fun, friendly, and highly energetic dogs. Whether it’s our leading lady Queen and her partner Ohmer or our big wheel dogs Tug and Barge, these guys make everyday fun. Our dog care has been publicly recognized as the best in the sport by the Tustumena 200, the Copper Basin 300, and the Knik 200 races multiple times.

In 2021, Travis received the sportsmanship award from the Willow 300. In 2022 we received another best dog care award from the Knik 200 and were also honored with the sportsmanship award by the Iditarod. In 2023, Travis was awarded the sportsmanship award by the Willow 300. We value quality dog care and helping others above any race placement. Travis led the Iditarod for the middle 300 miles of the race in 2024 and won the First Fish Award. Ultimately, he finished in 6th place in the 2024 race. Travis is returning to the 2025 Iditarod with new insight into competitive racing, and we are hoping for our first Iditarod championship.
