Tomorrow Starts the Quest 200

The sled is loaded on the truck. The drop bags are tied up and in the truck. The dogs enjoyed their final training run. It’s time for the Quest 200!

Simon’s team is a mixture of trail-hardened veterans and race rookies. For some, it will be a proving ground to see if they’re ready for the Iditarod team. And for others, it’ll just be a fun adventure. So WHO is on the team? Watch Simon’s video to find out!

We’ll be doing our best to post updates throughout the race, but service is spotty/nonexistent after Two Rivers. Mandy and I (Ryne) will be driving the truck and handling for Simon. Tucker will help out at the start, then loop around back home to care for the dogs left at the kennel. Derek and Kalyn will be at the Chena Outdoor Collective yurt, checking in guests, giving reindeer tours, and cheering for mushers as they go by!

A big thank you to all the individual dog sponsors, AlaSkins Pet Treats, Two Rivers Outpost, Bema Electronics, Chena Valley Development, Talespin Media, Orion’s Belt, and Big Dan’s Trucking for helping us get to the first race of the season!
