Alyeska's Spring Carnival returned with flair this weekend, after a pandemic hiatus, bringing back popular events such as the Dummy Downhill, the Tug-O-War and Slush Cup. WATCH:
Forness has overseen the state’s only legalized gambling event that has taken place ever since railroad workers placed bets on when the Tanana River ice would break up in 1917.
According to the Nenana Ice Classic website, the Alaska Legislature granted special statutory authority for the contest in 1960, and the Nenana Ice Classic Association was incorporated in 1972. Forness said that she has been going on trips across the state every spring to deliver cans where Alaskans can submit their guesses for when the tripod will fall in person. Additionally, anyone can submit a guess in the mail.
