Good Morning Iditabuds

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!

Good afternoon, Iditabuds! I'm enjoying the info and pics from checkpoints, especially Mile 101 on FB. Also got a text Friday from a volunteer, also from Virginia, that I met in Circle in 2016. He is working Eagle checkpoint this year and it was quite fun to get a text from Eagle! He has kept a blog each Quest, so here is his link to that, as he has some good pics as well. https://frozenbootie.wordpress.com/

Morning y'all. Most of the teams are in the winding trail spot, with Michelle in the lead.

Morning 'buds.

flowerpower sent her weather our way yesterday. It was very windy 40-50+ mph, and warm! 88F in Orlando. The storm part blew thru about 12:30am, then rain for awhile. No snow thank you. Today's temps in the 60s, lovely. :D

Nora Sjalin will be next team to reach Dawson. She is 13 miles out.
