Real Men Wear Fur

Fur Rondy 2011. Yet again another freezing festival day. The temperature was in the single digits and the wind chill in the negatives. However, Alaskans needed another reason besides freezing to death to stop them from coming out to celebrate Fur Rondy.

Dog sled races, carnival, helicoptor rides, ice sculptures, fur auctions and lots of food are some of the things that take place downtown for t





wo weekends. The Fur Rondy is the largest winter carnival in the United States, and the day is ended with fire works.
