To escape the "tongue-hanging-out" heat of Dog City, Ten-Gallon Bart heads up to Alaska to enjoy some sledding, fishing, and digging for gold. Grumpy grizzlies, a sled-dog-driving moose, and a dog-burying storm leave him longing for home. Fans of Ten-Gallon Bart may appreciate this third book, but the story is fairly weak on its own. The cut-paper illustrations are well rendered.
