The Black Team pulled the hook and left Unalakleet at 9.15pm after just under eight hours rest. Allen still has 14 team members with him as he heads to Shaktoolik. That's a lot of booties, jackets, leggings, dinners, massages, etc etc. He's doing a grand job with a big team of youngsters (and some elders).
It appears he's still travelling with Rick Casillo from Battle Dawgs Racing.
Drop Dog Update: We have verified that Driver, one of the yahoos, is the dog that was dropped from the Black Team in Koyukuk. He was tired and a bit sore, but having spent a couple of days resting at the checkpoint he is probably rearing to go.
This pic is one of my favorites from the re-start in Fairbanks - it really illustrates the nature of the yahoos. Trying to capture them all in one frame is near impossible without a wide angle lens.
