Sled skis: )

There's something sort of like that being used by a few of the mushers, called ski skins. Photo at bottom of this article by Terrie Hanke: http://iditarod.com/eye-on-the-trail-cr ... n-mcgrath/

I still like the heated handlebars from a few years ago. His cooker exhausted through the handlebars causing steam/smoke to exit both sides of the sled through the bars. :D

Was wondering if Jeff had something new to show us. Looks like a few of the sleds are equipped with the wide skies. Sorta like the fat tire bikes we've seen riding the snow.
