Once again - the Iditarod will soon be over. Mackey and King are nose to nose so to speak. It looks to be a closer finish this year than last.
Downtown at the start (notice the buildings)...
At the Official re-start in Willow (the open field on the far side is the lake planes land on...)
Dogs ready to run!
As far as I know, the only matched sled dog team this year - what a beautiful team..
Lance Mackey - Last year's winner
Jeff King - 4 time champ and trying for a 5th.

They are estimating the race will finish about 3:30am tomorrow morning. I probably won't stay up for it.
Of course Squirt has been absolutely enthralled by this over the last 10 days (OK maybe not that enthralled...) but - what dog doesn't want to be a sled dog champ???
