Our Mushing Tours
Black Spruce Dog Sledding is owned and operated by Iditarod race veterans, Jeff and KattiJo Deeter. Our tours are authentic, personal, in-depth and hands-on! Step into the boots of a real musher as you harness up a team of huskies for a thrilling Alaskan adventure. In the summer, join us for a wheeled mushing experience or a fun husky hike! In winter, steer a tag-sled across the Alaskan landscape. These tours give you an experience that goes beyond the ordinary.
