The first I heard about the Yukon was from Jack London books. Second was about the Yukon Quest, what a great race, in a great country, with great dogs and some really great volunteers and mushers.

The Yukon Quest is a volunteer effort from beginning to end. This epic 1,000 mile international sled dog race would never have been possible without the volunteer efforts of thousands of dedicated individuals all of whom have lent a hand ... and sometimes much more - over the last 25 years.
Volunteers are a vital support to race operations, office support and fundraising. The Yukon Quest welcomes volunteers from all over Alaska, the Yukon and around the world. Join our incredible volunteer team.
Have you volunteered with the Yukon Quest. We would love for you to share your experience with us.
To all the Volunteers who have made the Yukon Quest an iconic and epic race event, a huge heart-felt “Thank You!!”
