Short summary

Deep in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, the Iditarod trail plays host to the last great race. From Anchorage to Nome, 96 teams will attempt to traverse over a thousand miles of the most inhospitable terrain on the planet 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.

    The director introduce the viewers the background of a few selected racers, their struggle against cancer, diabetes, alcohol, etc. Then he sets them against each others as if it was the challenge of their life. He assembled pictures from many perspectives, aerial shots to details like the socks on the dog's paws.

    The director explain well the difficulties and the dangers of the race with interviews with the mushers during and after the race. The camera bring the viewer through numerous small villages in Alaska, places where most humans would never go.

    The picture quality (night and day) are excellent. Pictures angle from the dog's sled, still camera, close ups, landscape, the mountains, etc. I watched all the episodes twice in a row.
