The remaining 11 teams in the Iditarod Race are traveling on the overland Mail trail to Golovin. There is an “established” trail but it has not been used this year. The snow machines going out front will have to find the trail so the going will be quite SLOW!!!!! Martin says the plan is for them to work together to get everyone to White Mountian. Long day for those watching. Send positive energy out to the trail.
The Elim 11 have returned to Elim. Trail breakers couldn’t find the trail. It was windy up on top but good to get the dogs out for some exercise. The checkers and vets had the checkpoint all tidied up but now they crew is back. Dogs are enjoying the fresh straw. Time to regroup and decide what to do tomorrow. OR MAYBE try to get out tonight!!!!
