It’s always a great race, and then share with your mashers. It will still be a great race.

Well, that certainly makes more sense than walking 100 miles. ha! I used to follow the Iditarod faithfully but haven't for a few years. Jeff King, Rick Swenson, etc. I was a big Susan Butcher fan. I'm glad you are covering the race!

Mushers are turning toward mid distance (200-500 mile) races because the Iditarod’s entry fees are exorbitant and the purse is less than half of what it was for years. There are 300 mile races with purses not much less than the Iditarod. fwiw it’s Matthew Failor and Brent Sass. Thank you for your video.

This is an annual trip for us. I have the 2021 and 2022 trips in addition to this year’s 2023 (this two part video). Each year I have watched from a different part of the trail and the experiences have been different. If all goes well, we will return for the 2024. It really is a fantastic event.

For a number of years, they haven’t been able to start the actual race from downtown Anchorage because of the lack of snow. With the up tic in snow this winter, I would have thought they could have made the actual start from downtown. What happened? Thanks for your coverage. Take care.

For quite a few years, they’ve started the race out first in Wasilla and then later at Willow Lake. I believe they moved it from Wasilla to Willow Lake, because they were too many driveways across the trail.

Fantastic weather. We went out to the start as Willow today and it was a gorgeous day, but the temps started out at -9. That said, it did warm up to the high teens by the end of the day.
