Minnesota sled dog race cancelled - too much snow

The dogsled race near Frazee, Minn., has been canceled -- because there’s too much snow!

The Frazee area has received about 3 feet of snow, but winds keep creating drifts of 4 feet or more over the course, which was to host races of four to 14 miles.

“The drifting aspect is just unbelievable,” said Streeper, a native of Canada who has been involved with dogsled racing for 25 years. “I’ve never seen anything like it.”
