He just...

I'm sorry.

And then...

My bandana!

He... made me promise

to take care of you, Jenna.

You're lying.

Steele's lying.

Balto's alive.

And he's coming home.

Uh... Well, you know,

she needs a little time.

The sun. Ice caps.

Balto.

Rosy.

Hmm?

Let me tell you something, Balto.

A dog cannot make this journey alone.

But maybe a wolf can.

Great, things are not bad enough.

Now we got wolves.

Wolves?

- Hey, over here!

- What is it? What?

- Balto?

- And he's got the medicine!

Come on, Balto. Youse can make it.

That's the most amazing, the most fantastic,

that is the most incredible...

That's the most phenomenal...

That's good! Ohh!

Hey, he has got the feet of a wolf there.

- Come on, Balto.

- Keep tryin', baby.

- Pull! Pull! You got it!

- Just keep pullin'!

- You're almost there.

- Yeah! You got it!

- Come on, Balto!

- Come on, let's go!

- Let's go!

- Yes! You're there!

- That's it, that's it!

- All right!

-Yeah! All right!

- You did it!

Congratulations! That was great!

Come on! Mush!

Gesundheit.

Mush!

Oh, dear.

Come back to bed.

Here, drink this.

Thanks.

Balto.

- B-Balto.

Balto.

Balto's back!

Jenna.

The team!

They made it!

Of course, as you know.

I swam and I swam.

I was freezing cold. And then...

Finally, I said, Steele,

you'll have to gnaw

your way to the surface.

So I... What?

It's Balto. With the medicine!

Steele, you are positively...

disposable!

OK, OK. I can explain.

Tell me about it.

You guys weren't there, so you don't...

Wait a minute, guys.

Wait just a second. Please?

Get lost.

Steady, there. Easy, now.

That's had a long journey.

- How is he?

- He's gonna be OK.

Good dog, Balto.

Dear, dear Balto.

Good boy!

Not dog! Not wolf!

You're a hero!

Balto!

Come on, boy.

There's someone wants to see you.

Thank you! Thank you!

Mommy?

Rosy, darling. Ohh!

- I fell asleep.

- Rosy.

It's such a relief.

Balto.

I'd be lost without you.

Jenna.

Way to go, Balto!

He has the most endurance, the most fidelity,

the most intelligence!

They should build a statue of him!

- You said it!

- I did?

This is it. Grandma.

Blaze found it.

What does it say?

"Dedicated to the... " Indomable?

Indomitable.

"Indomitable spirit

of the sled dogs... "

"... that relayed antitoxin

"600 miles from Nenana

to the relief of stricken Nome...

"in the winter of 1925. "

"Endurance, fidelity, intelligence. "

Balto really did do all of that,

didn't he, Grandma?

Oh, yes, sweetheart, he really did.

And today they run

the Iditarod Dog Race

over the very path

he and the others took.

- Can Blaze do that too. Grandma?

- Maybe.

With practice.

A lot of practice.

Come on, Blaze. Come on! Mush!

Thank you, Balto.

I would've been lost without you.

Grandma Rosy!

Grandma Rosy, come on!

# Deep in the night

# The winds blow cold

# And in a heartbeat

# The fear takes hold

# Deep in the storm

# There's a place

that's soft and still

# Where the road waits to be taken

# If you only will

# The voices inside you

# Can lead you so astray

# Believe in what you dream

# Don't turn away

# Don't you turn away

# Reach for the light

# You might touch the sky

# Stand on a mountain top

# And see yourself flyin'

# Reach for the light

# To capture a star

# Come out of the darkness

# And find out

# Who you are

# Somewhere in time

# The truth shines through

# And the spirit knows

# What it has to do

# Somewhere in you

# There's a power with no name

# It can rise to meet the moment

# And burn like a flame

# And you can be stronger

# Than any fear you know

# Hold on to what you see

# Don't let it go

# Don't you let it go

# Reach for the light

# You might touch the sky

# Stand on a mountain top

# And see yourself flyin'

# Reach for the light

# To capture a star

# Come out of the darkness

# And find out

# Who you are

# There's no turning back

# And your destiny is callin'

# Listen to the thunder roll

# And let your heart

# Break free

# Reach for the light

# Reach for the light

# You might touch the sky

# Stand on a mountain top

# And see yourself flyin'

# Reach for the light

# To capture a star

# Come out of the darkness

# And find out who you

# Reach for the light

# You might touch the sky

# Stand on a mountain top

# And see yourself flyin'

# Reach for the light

# To capture a star

# Come out of the darkness

# And find out

# Who you are

# Yes, reach for the light #
