Refreshingly irreverent, boasting a more eccentric cast of characters than you’re used to seeing in nature adventure documentaries.

'The Race To Alaska' is marvelous at not only documenting how racers work around the complications of participating in this race, but also exploring why they do it.

As tongue-in-cheek as “R2AK” often is, it's not without its moments of danger, peril, and high drama. The most intense shows a team attempting to sidestep a whirlpool measuring 30' around and 10' deep and others dealing with equally threatening riptides.

Beautiful imagery and an amazing look into a race I would be terrified to go on myself. Nice to have a cozier view from my screen.

Fantastic! This film puts you in the captain's seat as you sail, paddle, or row your way 750 miles from Washington to Alaska. It's a surprisingly humorous story of those who brave the treacherous, frigid waters, and come out changed on the other side.
