Don't miss Outdoor Explorer this Thursday, at 9p.m. on AM 670.
Aliy Zirkle was the first woman to win the Yukon Quest and more recently — she’s come tantalizingly close to winning the Iditarod — placing 2nd three years in a row.
Zirkle didn’t grow up thinking she would become a famous musher. But she always loved the outdoors. And when she was studying biology at the University of Pennsylvania, she walked into a lab one day saw this sign on the door: “Why are you studying biology in downtown Philadelphia when you could be in Alaska?”
A few years later, she was mushing her first team of dogs in the Interior community of Bettles. Join host Annie Feidt for an interview with this remarkable musher.
