History

The time-aged tradition dates back to the early 1900s when trappers and miners emerged from Alaska's wilderness to trade, socialize and compete in survival-type games. Prizes were awarded for the longest fox, the best fox and finest ermine pelts, and the event was officially named Fur Rendezvous in 1937.
