Thx for sharing Eggs, really enjoyed that! I love Joar's hat!!

I haven't looked at the linked video yet, but I noticed that big dog on Joar's team in an earlier video. Handsome big boy. Those Chukchi dogs certainly have a look of their own. My first thought upon seeing the big boy was that he's got Akita in his makeup somewhere as well. (But then, what do I know?)

Back to add that Joar's team was REALLY ready to leave Ididarod! When he pulled the hook, and with a leap in the air by one of his lead dogs, they shot out of there like a rocket.

Good to hear!!
BTW I love the Chukchi dogs! How is Mikhail doing these days? He was interesting to watch and the way he cared for those Chukchis

I like what Joar said,
"As long as you are moving you are getting somewhere" or something like that.

Waiting . . . Waiting . . . Who will be the first to leave? This is turning out to be an exciting race!

For those of us without the GPS here is an interactive map found on KTUU site.

More interesting than the previous years... Or perhaps my memory is bad?

Has anyone noticed ( If you have Insider)Kelly Maixner GPS track replay ? McGrath to Iditarod? What a shortcut..... Had to been a glitch.. But interesting..... Or I bet it was broke and flown there turned off.......

I think we have a 3 way race up the coast, Nck, Mitch, Joar. Richie d and PK in the hunt.
