The Challenge of the Yukon! The Wonder Dog King, swiftest and strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets the Challenge of the Yukon! Sergeant Preston was typical of a small band of Northwest-mounted police, who preserved law and order in the new Northwest country,

where the greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his Wonder Dog game met that challenge, and Justice Rule triumphant. Where you ever out in the Silent Cold, where the Yukon Snowers lie deep, with the whaling howl of a timber wolf,

who love you off to sleep, with eyes like a circle of fiery colds, the huskies sit round in the snow, and howl to the moon in the silent sky, their dismal whale of war. Such was the setting when Sergeant Preston lay beside his campfire, his great dog king at his side.

It was the hour just before dawn. Suddenly the great dog raised his head, his ears pricked forward. What's the matter boy? Something coming? Hmm, that morning, yeah, I wonder... Boy, boy, I hear it. Hello there! Who is it?

The container! The little... Anking, what? What are you doing on the trail? This are your taina. Sergeant Preston, how? Let me leave my camp. Bad spirits come. Bad spirits? Comes down with a fire here and tell me about it.

We have to hurry. Leave on boat. Go far away this part country. God of mountain angry. Now listen, your taina. You weren't the smartest young Indians in your car. You really don't believe that. Me, Hiram, old Kuna. He know what God of mountain say.
