Lance Mackey has arrived a Chistochina with a happy spunky dog team. We are now waiting for Aliy to arrive.
Allen Off On the Trail
Although it was a little crazy getting to the starting line, Allen and the Black Team are on their way. On this BEAUTIFUL day, all of SP Kennel's teams are on the trail. Each of our mushers are carrying a SPOT locator and you can track them at www.cb300.com. The teams now travel through the mountains to village of Chistochina, a hard 6 – 8 hour run. We will get updates out as soon as possible.
Aliy And Bridgett Out
PreRace Mobile Update 1
Dogs, handlers and gear are at the starting line. Everything is gearing up to go. Saw lots of moose and caribou on trip down. Will post pictures of race when I can.
SP Kennel Start Positions
SP Kennel has made it down to the Copper Basin 300 and are all checked in. They are currently on their way to Paxson for the night to prepare for the 1 pm AST race start. The start positions were drawn from an old boot at the musher’s meeting this afternoon. Aliy and the Red Team will be heading out in the 2nd slot. Bridgett and the Red & Black Team will be going out 6th. Allen and the Black Team drew 50th out of 51 teams. Not exactly what he was hoping for, but he will make the best of it. Teams will go out in 2 minute intervals. There is WiFi at Paxson Lodge so I hope to be able to keep you updated at the start. Enjoy the race.
