The actual miniature of this design is slightly different. The Santa is positioned on the left side of the sled.

Alaskans celebrate Christmas on December 25th, like the rest of America in the lower forty- eight states. In this state near the artic circle, Santa Claus visits villages by dog sled. Just like many Alaskans, his prized sled and Huskies are his trusty friends in this cold and snowy land. As Santa rides, he thinks about the famous Iditarod Sled Dog Race hosted by Alaska each year. The event begins in Anchorage and ends in Nome. Mushers cross 1,150 miles of the roughest, coldest, and most beautiful terrain Mother Nature has to offer. Just like the Iditarod competitors, Santa travels over the jagged mountain ranges, frozen rivers, desolate tundras, and miles of wind-swept coastline. He mushes not to win a race, but to deliver gifts and holiday wishes.

In the Northern part of the world Santa travels the cold regions wearing fur lined coat and boots. He braces the cold north winds by holding steady with a skiing pole. His friend, the polar bear, accompanies him on his midnight journey. Santa enjoys the companionship and feels the warmth of the season by spending it with one of God’s magnificent creatures. The Cold North Santa’s bag is filled with toys of the region that represent the vast wild life, such as a whale, seal, moose and polar bears. Every child that lives in the snowy mountains need snow shoes and Santa is well aware that many have to be delivered on Christmas Eve. Many families will be surprised when the Cold North Santa brings fresh fish to serve as part of their Christmas meal. Favorites are trout and Northern pike. It may be a cold Christmas up North, but homes will be glowing with the warmth that the holidays bring.

Santa’s Candy Cane Magnifying Glass is a must for any Pipka collector. This little item brings a whole new vision of the extreme detail of Pipka’s work. Designed to be part of the miniature collection, it is also perfect for use and display near any sized Pipka Santa.
