2018 Iditarod Top Ten Picks (TTP)

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!

Hi All--I just logged in one final time to say the winner this year will be me, because I'm not going to watch the Idiotrod this year (BTW-that was the correct spelling). If anyone wonders why, they can search my past posts here; but be careful, I just night convince you to do the same--in which case, you'd come in second. Bye, all :-)
