Ryno Kennel is not racing in the CB300- but lots of great teams are! Be sure to follow along Allen Moore, Aliy Zirkle, and Meghan Luke from SP Kennel as well as Amanda Gecas from Boundary Kennel and Matt Hall from Smokin Ace Kennel. 

Why is the CB one of my favorite races?  While I've only raced the CB300 once in 2012 (and it was cancelled after only 90 miles due to no trail), the Copper Basin proves to be one of the most challenging and exciting mid-distance races in Alaska. As shown by the adjacent picture, the trail crosses open water, wind blown peaks, and frequent overflow. Add to that frigid temperatures and we have a dog race folks!
