Saying 'HI'

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 to see you here, Karen. Glad to see you back as a judge again this year. Which checkpoints did you get to?

Well, we were all hindered by weather this year, so I didn't get to work any early checkpoints - and I had to scramble back to Canada later in the race - so only Nikolai, Takotna and Galena.

It was, for sure, one for the history books. The weather was insane - and then throw in Covid-19 and it got surreal. I was impressed by how well the mushers rolled with the challenges the virus threw at them.

Karen, I'm a FB "friend" following along there as you and your new pack herd sheep and chickens, but it's really nice to see you here as well.
