Welcome to Team Mitsubishi Alcan - we're six amateur rallyists who have made the decision to tackle one of the most challenging rallies in the world - the Alcan 5000 Winter Rally.

This event will take us from Seattle, Washington to the village of Tuktoyaktuk, Northwest Territories - approximately 250 miles north of the Arctic Circle - and we're going in the middle of winter! It's 5,000 miles of some of the toughest roads in North America.

You can follow our progress before we leave and as we compete with some of the best Time-Speed-Distance rallyists in the world, all the way to the Arctic and back.

We're going in a pair of 2007 Mitsubishi Outlander SUVs, provided by Mitsubishi Motors North America. We looked at every brand of SUV on the market and chose the Outlander for its utility, toughness, economy, and comfort. Mitsubishi has a great history of supporting the sport of Rally, and we're proud to be their team.

Over on the left side of this page, you'll find links to blogs for each member of the team and for documentation about our process of preparing ourselves and our cars for this adventure. You'll find links to photo galleries that we'll update as we go. And of course, you'll find links to our sponsors - the companies and individuals who are helping make this trip possible for us.

So come along and enjoy the trip with us - you don't even have to get cold!
