In this week’s episode of the Team & Trail Podcast, Michele Forto takes you along for an unforgettable Alaska loop road trip in the Sled Dog Jeep. The journey runs from Willow to Valdez, across Thompson Pass, into Wrangell St. Elias National Park, and deep into McCarthy and the historic Kennecott Mine. If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to explore some of Alaska’s most remote and rugged corners, this episode brings you right into the passenger seat.

You’ll hear about the waterfalls of Valdez, glacier views along the Glenn Highway, Fourth of July celebrations in McCarthy, the raw history of the abandoned Kennecott Mine, and the small-town magic of late-night music and a community play staged inside a bar. From fat-bike rides to meeting young mushers building their kennel on the edge of the park, this is Alaska storytelling at its best.
