Any one know where I can get a DVD copy of the George Atla movie? About the Alaska dog musher? Or even where I can download a copy. It use to be on YouTube but not anymore.

Wow! Not on Amazon or Ebay! Alaska Raw Fur in Fairbanks had them when I was in there last. I wonder if they are a collector's item now?

I knew George pretty well. I bought fish with him and his daughter Doobie here on the Yukon River many years ago during the King boom years. We both ran boats. He has been at my house several times. I have handwritten notes from him somewhere he left on my door when I was not home.

I once asked him if he got rich from the movie. He said no. They got most, he got peanuts he said.

I got passed by George one night near North Pole, (the town). Thankfully on a straight section of trail. It was a nice clean pass. He had 26 dogs pulling a light weight sprint sled. That's a huge string, not sure he could see his leaders.

I'm pretty sure he was running Dogs when I lived in Tok...there were some pretty big Races going on then...
