White Oaks Classic
January
Sled dog racing in northern Minnesota.

The Pro Race trail is a scenic route that traverses varied terrain including forests, brooks, lakes, fields and populated areas. The distance, terrain, and variable weather make this a very challenging race. Due to the rigors of the course, drivers will have to exercise good judgment in pacing themselves and their teams. Simply finishing is a great accomplishment. The course is run on all snowmobile trails and the course markings for the event include the markings associated with the snowmobile trails. The trails in use will be presented at the musher meeting.

For 2010 the route from the White Oak Fur Post through Deer River has been changed. The trail will be the same for the first mile and then will turn west on a new trail. The new trail will come out directly on Hwy 46. The re-route will eliminate all the previous trail through the town of Deer River.
