Thanks Al,for posting the picture.
There was an entry posted that (11) Palin/Quam and (7)Davis/Davis had gone ahead and cut the trail when they were trying to get out of Nome. There was 7 feet of new snow, storm surge in the bay, flooding at every waterway where it is usually covered with ice. If they can go over the ice, the trip is faster. Very, very dangerous, and very brave for the four that went ahead to cut trail.
I believe the trail was cut before the race started, but with the bad weather it had to be done again. Cory Davis is a rookie to this race, so a shout out to him.
I checked out all the links on the C4P website, so that is how I saw this info.
I’m clumsy with posting pictures so I appreciate that you did.
The first groups are already racing. Team 14 is solid but they've never come close to winning this race. Team 10 (directly ahead of Todd/Eric) won last year. I suspect Todd and partner know they're the ones they have to stay in contact with, along with looking out for Scott Davis and his son right behind them.
Should be a great finish.
