Even Anchorage’s hardened snow lovers have been tested this winter by storm-related conditions and closures. Some folks antsy for the sun-soaked greens and hard-earned warmth of summer might look back and mutter, “This winter has been the worst.”

Science might soon back up that subjective take on the snow.

In West Anchorage, meteorologists measure snowfall several times each day, and the data is getting interesting. As of Saturday, Anchorage is 4 inches from tying the season-long snowfall accumulation record. Only two winters have been snowier than the 130.5 inches that have been measured at the National Weather Service’s Anchorage forecasting office on Sand Lake Road this snow season.

Brent Sass, aboard a sleek new sled, wins the Yukon Quest Alaska 2024 !

Brent Sass learned some hard lessons when he was run over by 16-year-old musher Emily Robinson at the Knik 200 last month.

Sass, a long-distance mushing champion with Iditarod and Yukon Quest titles, admitted the sled he'd been riding for the past decade wasn't ideal for mid-distance racing.

So he took the Yukon Quest Alaska 300 2024 as an opportunity to try out a sled better suited to this race. And it seemed to fit perfectly.

Sass won the Yukon Quest Alaska 300 and crossed the finish line in Central on Monday. According to the Quest's race tracker, he crossed the finish line after 46 hours and 48 minutes.

An Alaska company is working to build a better bunny boot. The military-issued boot is iconic footwear in Alaska, but new versions have never been available to consumers, Alaska Gear Co. says. They want to make a better version of the bulbous rubber boot that can be hard to find and expensive at surplus stores, said Sean McLaughlin, the company’s majority owner. Many of those original boots are decades old, and the rubber eventually wears out, he said.
