Alaska Air National Guard Airmen from the 168th Wing volunteer as security, dog handlers, and traffic coordinators along the route of the 2025 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race in the “Golden Heart City” of Fairbanks, Alaska, March 3, 2025. Members of the 168 WG took the opportunity to volunteer their time in the Fairbanks community, embodying the spirit of service during the historical Iditarod restart. The Iditarod is an endurance race, and the 168th WG shows that true service is about commitment to the mission and the people it serves. The wing's dedication to local support highlights the unity and strength of the Alaskan people. The 2025 Iditarod, an enduring symbol of Alaska’s resilience and adventurous spirit, saw 33 mushers and their teams embark on the longest trail in Iditarod history, spanning 1,128 miles from Fairbanks to Nome.
