Severe winter weather conditions prevent medicine from being brought by air or sea, and the closest rail line ends in HYPERLINK "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nenana,_Ala ska" \o "Nenana, Alaska"Nenana. A dog race is held to determine the best-fit dogs for a sled dog team to get the medicine. Balto enter and wins, but Steele exposes his wolf-dog heritage hence he is disqualified.

On the way, they are attacked by a huge grizzly bear, but Jenna, who followed their tracks, intervenes. However, Jenna got injured.

Using his advanced senses, Balto is able to filter out the false markers Steele created.After encountering further challenges, and losing only one vial, Balto and the sled team finally make it back to Nome.
