In this final part of Aliy’s “Live” video from the Iditarod Trail, the team battles fierce winds of a “ground blizzard” approaching Shaktoolik and Norton Sound of the Bering Sea. The middle segment is a night scene at the checkpoint, and the finale is a camping scene after the storm has finally died down. Conditions were so bad that Aliy could barely hold onto the camera. The audio is pretty rough, but I think you’ll get a very good idea of what the teams were facing during the worst weather of this year’s Iditarod.
