I had volunteered to help today from 10:30 till the
end at 1 PM, and I think I got the best job! I was a “trail guard.”

.. after the re-start |
I finally met my pilot - Bill Bear! |
Here we are in Skwentna, about 70 miles down the Iditarod
Trail |

Here are the pictures of this
checkpoint from the last year race, which are generously donated
by Ann Morgan (a teacher from Chatham, Ma) |
we were met by a snow machine with a sled
behind it |
...to bed on sled |
He/she takes off their booties and massages
their feet with an ointment, and then makes them some hot food |
