And the long trail north still runs through Wasilla's story. The route to Nome began as a gold-rush mail and freight trail, carried by dog teams across the Knik country and over the mountains toward the Bering Sea coast; when the modern thousand-mile race made its first full run to Nome in 1973, Wasilla became its institutional home — the valley town most tied to the long trail north, where its history is kept and told.
Our Wasilla logo carries Alaska's bear over “Alaska Territory · Est. 1959,” the year Alaska became the forty-ninth state — the shared emblem of every Merlin Classics Alaska place. Printed in a distressed black-and-white that reads like an old outfitter's stamp, the bear is the Last Frontier in shorthand: rugged, wild, and at home in the cold. What makes this one Wasilla is the country behind it — the Mat-Su Valley, the lakes and ranges, and the trail that runs all the way to Nome.
