Description: Vintage Postcard: Dog Racing Ishpeming Michigan Postmark: Condition: unposted Ishpeming, Michigan, has a historical connection to dog racing, particularly sled dog events. Vintage postcards from the early 1900s depict dog racing scenes in Ishpeming, indicating the town's involvement in such activities during that era. In contemporary times, while Ishpeming itself may not host major dog racing events, the broader Upper Peninsula of Michigan remains a hub for sled dog racing. Notably, the UP200 is a prominent 12-dog mid-distance race that serves as an Iditarod qualifier. The race covers approximately 228 miles, starting and ending in Marquette, Michigan, and traversing through areas like Grand Marais. For those interested in experiencing dog sledding firsthand, Nature's Kennel in McMillan, Michigan, offers sled dog adventures, including opportunities to drive your own team or enjoy guided rides. While Ishpeming's direct involvement in dog racing may be more historical, the Upper Peninsula continues to celebrate and uphold the tradition of sled dog racing through various events and experiences.
