Skeet Ulrich stars in this comedy as Kevin Manley, a bored city dweller whose life changes the day he learns he will inherit his grandfather's vast fortune if he can finish a 1,000 mile dog sled race between Anchorage and Nome, Alaska. Knowing that he could never accomplish such a task, Kevin is relieved to hear that the daughter of his grandfather's rival, Bonnie (Henstridge), has agreed to help him and, once he meets her, excited that she is a buxom blonde. However, what Kevin doesn't know is that his bungling lawyer (Nielsen), is scheming to sabotage Kevin and Bonnie's run to Nome so that he can claim the Manley inheritance as his own.
