Anciior Point is located on the
Seward, Highway, near the tip
of the Kenai Peninsula.
Main point of interest at the
Festival is probably the dog team
races, which bring competing
mashers from various Alaskan
cities and native villages. Addi
tional highlights include weight
pulling contests on ice (last year's
winning team of three dogs pulled
more than two tons!) and ski
joring. The latter event, being
pulled on skis by dog or horse
teams, is open to any visitor who
brings his skis with him to the
Festival.
