Rainy Pass Checkpoint #1

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!

There's a new update that says Kjetil left RP and DeeDee is still in. It seems Kjetil has stopped for a break at 142 miles. Speed zero. :roll:

It looks like DeeDee dropped a dog at Finger Lake also. Hope everything is going OK. It is a long haul, and you need as many of the team as possible to get there.
