We invite you to a rare place where you can witness the most challenging sled dog race in the eastern United States. We have organized high-quality racing events designed for the enjoyment of mushers, spectators, and dog teams. All three Can-Am Crown races (the 250, 100, and 30 mile races) now have highly accessible starts on Main Street in Fort Kent, Maine and comfortably viewed finishes at Lonesome Pine ski lodge in Fort Kent. The start in the morning and finish lines in the late afternoon in Fort Kent are a festival of food, family fun, music, and vendors! The Can-Am Crown 250 also has designated spectator points in the towns of Portage Lake and Allagash. For logistic and safety reasons, checkpoints west of Portage Lake and south of Allagash are closed to the public. Click here for the best places to view the races. Racing events in Fort Kent are planned to have maximum accessibility and visibility. There are no fees to view the races. Bring your camera! Relax! As you visit our friendly towns along the way, you may want to pause for refreshment and talk with the local folks. Enjoy the easy pace of life and the helpful and friendly people. You'll find everything you need for a uniquely enjoyable experience.
