Wow!!  What a day!!  I started off having problems with my browser (it took me a while to realize that it was on my end, not a problem with my Ultimate Insider)!  

I managed to get the live feed to start just as Dallas arrived at the burled arch!  I took a couple of photos with my iPhone as I viewed the event on my laptop!  Almost like

being there!

Here is my picture of Dallas, Reef and Hero!  Doesn’t it look like I was there?  

The day has been filled with exciting videos of the top 7 finishers…with more to come!  One of my favorite moments

was watching Jeff King’s dogs run excitedly out of the chute when the check-in and interview were over!  I think

they were ready to run another 1,000 miles!  

Here’s the top 7 finishers:

Wade Marrs will probably be in within the hour, with Ken Anderson, Nicolas Petit, Travis Beals, Paul Gebhardt, Peter Kaiser, Kelly Maxine,

Christian Turner and Ray Redinton, Jr. all out of White Mountain and on the trail! 9 others are still in White Mountain taking their

mandatory 8-hour stop. 

There are 19 mushers holding up in Shaktoolik, including Bryan Bearss.  There is talk about bad weather in that

area which makes me wonder if the 3 mushers who left Kaltag on their way to Unalakleet are hunkered down.  At least,

their GPS’s seem to be indicating that they are together and have not been proceeding for a while now. 

In all, there are 61 teams still out on the trail!  

Enjoy!!
