Mushing the Iditarod Trail (1986)

The famous dog sled race distilled down to a very simple board game. Be the first the reach Nome, Alaska by exact count with mandatory equipment on your sled. Movement by the roll of two six-sided dice and two decks of cards steer game play. Mush cards are used to retrieve the mandatory gear and Whoa cards are hardships and obstacles encountered by the Dog Team and Musher along their journey. Game pieces are plastic sleds and the mandatory gear pieces are plastic miniatures that will fit on the sled. The game board is colorful with cartoons aplenty. The Mush and Whoa cards are very dull with all cap text and no graphics at all.
