Dogsled Racing

There are 26 checkpoints on each route in the Iditarod. The southern route is taken on odd numbered years(such as this year,2013) and the northern route is taken on even numbered years. I'm not able to give the exact information of where each checkpoint is on both northern and southern routes, but somewhere else on wikianswers(this website).

The value of a 1901 Radio Flyer snow sled can vary depending on its condition, rarity, and any historical significance. Generally, these sleds can range in value from around $100 to over $500 for well-preserved or unique examples. I recommend consulting with antique dealers or collectors for a more accurate assessment.

The first Iditarod was held in 1973.

The sled was not invented by a single individual, but has been used for transportation and recreation for centuries. It is believed to have been independently developed by various cultures around the world to transport goods and people over snow and ice.

Yes, the US government has the authority to regulate driving privileges, vehicle safety standards, and environmental guidelines. These regulations aim to ensure public safety and protect the environment. Restrictions on driving behavior, such as speed limits or mileage caps, are typically set at the state or local level to promote safety and control traffic congestion.

No, all dogs do not have the same scientific name. The scientific name for the domestic dog is Canis lupus familiaris, while wild dogs like the grey wolf have a different scientific name.

A German Shepherd could pull a sled its strong enough to all you would need to do would be to train it and they are very smart

In 2011 they receive a "purse" which is their prize money, with $528,000. They will also receive a red truck:D

I'm not positive but I think it is Anchorage to Nome.

No one can MAKE a sled dog run and pull a sled. Mushers must build relationships with the dogs. Dogs are born, breed, and trained to run. These dogs have it in their blood line to love to run and pull. The dogs also have a natural 2 layer coat to protect them from the elements. The dogs get the best veterinarian care possible. But no one can MAKE a sled dog pull a sled and race. The dog has to want to do it. (It's like you can't push a string...)

The fewest dogs you can run with is at least 10. At the start of the race you must at least has 12 dogs in order to start the race

Husky or Alaskan Malamutes

Titan, Jupiter's moon, because we all know that Titan is the snow planet. It had to originate there when god was testing out the new animals he built.
