Actually, somebody on FB said it looks like Todd/Tyler are turning around and going back ..... it does look like that on the individual GPS. Shell Lake is not a layover so maybe they’re trying to get back to Skwentna, which is. I think it’s only 18 miles from Shell Lake to Swentna so they should be able to get back.

Oh yeah, can really see it on GPS now .... definitely turned around. BUMMER!!!! The leaders are cruising & already at Rohn Roadhouse (234 from the start).

Ok, Todd/Tyler back in Skwentna. Maybe there will be some communication from there since it's an official layover as to what is going on. They are WAY behind now ... Skwentna is about mile 89 & the leaders are through the Rohn Roadhouse checkpoint at about mile 234, should make it to McGrath at mile 360 for a required layover (14 hours since they have taken no other layover time). Todd/Tyler can take a 6 or 8 hour layover at Skwentna.

FB comment from a long-time race watcher: Looks like they towed back in, if its not terrible, they will declare a layover, and fly parts in, otherwise, its a good place to break down, warm bed and food and an airport
