Before the snowmobile and before the airplane, people for centuries relied on dog sledding as a means to traverse arctic landscapes.

Using dog sledding as an anchoring point, DPL’s own Jasmine and Chase will highlight the fascinating history, culture and people behind this phenomenon. Join us for an engrossing presentation on an often hidden history.
