A Tour of Iditarod Headquarters

Quick, though, before you go into the museum, look left. You’ll see not just an old sled but several examples of old style harnesses hanging on the walls. This one once belonged to Leonhard Seppala and is displayed courtesy of the Earl Norris Family. Natalie Norris continues to be active in the mushing community despite the death of her husband Earl and was responsible for recovering the stuffed carcass of Fritz, a Seppala leader that he valued almost as much as Togo. Fritz now resides in the museum in Nome.
