The 300-mile-long Beargrease runs from Duluth along the North Shore of Lake Superior to Grand Portage. It's the longest sled dog race in the lower 48 states. Due to virtually no snow, it’s been canceled this year largely out of concern for musher and dog safety.

That story and more in this evening update from MPR News. Hosted by Emily Reese. Music by Gary Meister.
