Great Howler!
I love the map of the usual odd year route vs the 2015 route. This map makes it so clear, and lays out the new distances great.
Huslia, No stopping to pee on your way to Huslia Schmoe Dawg.
Gotta get Aliy to NOME!!!
Woohoo! 🙂
This is going to be one exciting race!!! Thanks so much for the nifty map!!!
So glad to be able to travel the trail (electronically) with SP Kennel's Red and Black Teams; reading the HOWLER got me even more wound up and ready to roll!!!
Woof, woof, woof!!!
Go Red, Go Black!!!
Best,
Margaret
Thank you so much for continuing to do such a superb job with your great updates, no matter how busy your schedules are!!!
Interesting route this year! In fact, I think that the 1925 Serum Run started in Nenana!
Best of luck, enjoy and thank you again!!! :):):)

Woof woof from DENALI and Joanne.
On a different topic, I was watching Iditarod Insider videos and the one of Aliy and Quito is really nice – but what really got my attention was an awareness that has grown over the last two years and that is how really, really beautiful Quito is.
Nice job on the Howler! It was fun reliving the Yukon Quest as we sit poised at the edge of the Iditarod….new race route and all!! Very exciting!!
Just finished creating a Wikipedia page for Aliy because I was aghast that she did not have one– please check it out and make sure that it is accurate!
