It is about 15 minutes only which was a little disappointing but the guide and the rest of their staff provided excellent customer service

Hi! Thank you for sharing your feedback. The Sampler tour includes a 2mi ride which takes approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on the trail conditions and the speed of the team of Alaskan Huskies in front of the sled. We are so glad you enjoyed the experience and the customer service while visiting.

We loved our 2-mile dog sled run with Josi and 8 of her atheletic dogs! We were whisked down the snowy path fueled by her amazing canine pack and loved hearing stories from her about her 2024 Iditarod race where she won the Rookie of the race award running with 5 of the same dogs that were pulling our sled that day! We took a short break at the half-way point on our ride and switched places in the sled so we both had a chance to be in the front as well as the back. We had a lot of fun and loved seeing the dogs in action doing what they love while we also enjoyed the beautiful snowy scenery!
