This Tiny Maine Town Comes Alive Every Winter

In the dead of winter, most small towns slow down. In Fort Kent, Maine, winter brings the community to life. This video takes place during the Can-Am Crown International Dog Sled Race, an event that draws teams and visitors from around the world to the very tip of Maine. While the Can-Am is a qualifier for the Iditarod, this video isn’t focused on race standings or technical details. Instead, it’s about the town. I spent the day walking through Fort Kent, talking with locals, learning about the race from a Maine Game Warden, visiting area businesses, and watching how a small northern community comes together on a bitterly cold winter day. You’ll see sled dogs, people lining the streets, local shops, and the energy that fills the town when winter is at its coldest — and its best. Thanks for watching and taking a look at life in the dead of winter.
