Our HistoryRace to the Sky is Montana’s premier winter sporting event, and recognized as one of the most challenging and beautiful sled dog races in the world.
In 1986, the races debuted under the name of the Montana Governor’s Cup Sled Dog Race, featuring the inaugural 500-mile continuous race in February of that year. Since then, Race to the Sky has remained an Iditarod qualifier.
Our Races are a test of physical strength, mental toughness, teamwork, and a special bond between man and his canine friends. Working together, teams negotiate the trail through Montana’s scenic Rocky Mountains.
