Thank you to Ernie Campbell (who put in the 6 and 4-dog trail), Brent Beck for marking the trails, and Trevor Lizotte for dragging the trail the day of the race.
Thank you to all that helped out during the last two days of racing – it was a wonderful Christmas gift to all of us mushers to have our families and friends gather and race together in the sport of dog mushing!
