Hold tight! Take a wild sled dog ride with 4-time Iditarod champ Jeff King

The 2014 Iditarod trail includes some of the toughest mushing in the history of the race, veterans said. Especially early along the trail, mushers were battered and bruised on snowless ground. Four-time winner Jeff King shot this footage using a helmet cam between Rainy Pass, in the Alaska Range, and the Rohn checkpoint on Monday, March 3. The video was provided to the Anchorage Daily News (adn.com/Iditarod) by Iditarod Insider (www.iditarod.com.) The talk of the trail this year, it's one of the first-ever looks at what a musher sees while crossing some of the trickiest corners of the 1,000-mile race.
