Dragged Into Unalakleet: My Most Humbling Moment on the Trail

September 6, 2025
Editor and/or Contributors

In part three of our series, Maine musher Jonathan Hayes takes us deeper into his Centennial Seppala Expedition, from Galena to Unalakleet. Along the way, he shares the magic of the historic portage and honors traditions at Old Woman Cabin. He witnesses the Northern Lights before facing the humbling chaos of being dragged into town across the glare ice.

This episode captures both the spiritual highs and the unpredictable realities of mushing across Alaska’s unforgiving coast.
