White Mountain CP #1

This is a forum for general discussion of dogsled racing, with a special focus on Alaska, and is open to all. It is expected that this area will see the most activity during the months leading up to, and during the annual Iditarod sled dog race. Pictures from races can be posted here. Hosting is provided by the Bering Strait School District (BSSD), and the area is open all year. Care to be one of our volunteer moderators? Contact us!

"Håper du har det bra" means "I hope you are doing fine". Were you born in Sweden or in the US? If you want to pick up on your swedish/norwegian, try to read some norsk on the TN site. http://hurdal.com

Thank you very much Aren. I was born and raised in Minnesota, but made many "pilgrimages" to Sverige throughout my life. In particular, our relatives are in Goteborg, Uppsala and some just outside of Stockholm. I have to say, though, one of my favorite cities in the world is Bergen, I'd love to get a house there (if I could ever afford it)...Bergen is just beautiful and I loved the fish market there.

I'll check out that website, thanks for the tip.

Did I mention that Kjetil was fading? ;) Just kidding....

Sorry, I couldn't resist! :D I knew this guy--a Minnesotan--who used to make that stuff all the time. You needed an IV the next day because the stuff was so full of salt. And then when I talked to other Minnesotans, they said that there are actually different varieties of tater tot hot dish! It cracked me up!

Thanks, dilli, for providing the WM webcam link from my last years' list. If I recall correctly, it wasn't working earlier so I removed it. Just added it back.

The password for the second Nome webcam is no longer valid. I think there may be a new one soon. ;) :D

Ramy and Cim always seem to speed up and go real fast towards the end of the race. Am I wrong or have they consistently posted the fastest times from Safety to Nome the last few years :?: :?:
