Off the Yukon

Aliy cruised off the Yukon River and into Kaltag at 11:14 am AST. There is an excellent video of her coming in and the dogs look FABULOUS. She commented that she wished she looked as good as the dogs. "I'm about to fall over asleep!"

The dogs looked like they got an excellent parking place, though there doesn't seem to be much wind. The trails were hard and fast and obviously agreed with the Red Team. They will likely take a good rest before heading out on the Portage Trail to Unalakleet. I can't say how long that rest will be. Only Aliy know that at this point.

We have SP crew heading out to key positions on the trail. Hope to hear from them sometime tomorrow.

Joe Runyon article very positive this morning. Here's a link.
