English: Dog team and bicycle rider at Nome, ca. 1901 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||
Description |
English: While dogsleds seemed the best way to travel in the Alaskan snow, a few intrepid people tried bicycles. In February 1900, one young man left Dawson on a bicycle he'd learned to ride a week earlier. He traveled on the frozen Yukon arrived in Nome just over a month later. He arrived exhausted and nearly snowblind, but he said that he was relieved not to have had to cook dogfood for his bicycle.
This photo of a dog team and a cyclist was taken in Nome in 1901 or 1902.
