The last musher will finish the Iditarod tonight and receive the Red Lantern award, so we’ll turn off the Christmas lights and keep our tradition alive. #Alaska #Iditarod

For the ten teams still on the Iditarod trail, brutal conditions Thursday across the Tokpok Hills between the White Mountain and Safety checkpoints. The NRCS Johnson Camp SNOTel reporting winds 25 to 45 mph and temperatures colder than -20F. No doubt with ground blizzard conditions. #akwx #Iditarod

Here's a look at the weather in Nome over the past 54 years when the Iditarod winner crossed the finish line. Coldest finish -19F in 1977 (Rick Swenson) and 1995 (Doug Swingley). Mildest finish: 32F in 1974 (Carl Huntington). Stormiest: Snowing and blowing (but 30F) in 1998. (Jeff King). @Jdnome

Congratulations to Jessie Holmes for his rare repeat win of the Iditarod! #Alaska #Nome #Iditarod #DogsOfMastodon #mushing

Late 20th century "I'm a Husky Lover" buttons. Via the Anchorage Museum, which says they're related to the Iditarod, which you can believe if you want. #alaskahistory #alaska #iditarod

And they're off! It's Iditarod race time in Alaska. Mush! Link to my blog. #Alaska #Anchorage #Iditarod #Mushing #DogsOfMastodon

Wait, why is it called Iditarod 350 if Justinas is at "mile 260" and has to go "45 miles" to McGrath finish?

Today I learned that the only person from the lower 48 states to win the #Iditarod came from the same place the Unabomber lived.

I was streaming old episodes of Yukon Men, and I wondered if anyone has completed the Iditarod Trail on foot, unaided by a sled dog team. Crazy enough, it's a real thing . . . The Iditarod Trail Invitational! They have bike and ski categories, but they're not as badass.

This is an older video interview with a guy who finished second in 2022, and again in 2024!

This is the first Iditarod I’ve not closely followed in a dozen years. I recognized fewer mushers’ names and noticed a number of familiar names were absent. #Iditarod

Just Packing A Cooler For The Next 1150 Miles

I love how Samantha LeLonde's sled is packed with a cooler as if she's just out for a quick picnic, instead of the longest Iditarod race ever at 1150 miles across Al

008/100 #The100DayProject #100DayProject2025 Spent the morning at the start of #Iditarod 2025, spent the afternoon & evening trying to get all the photos off my “new” camera, which I discovered is a pre-cameras-with-wifi model. 😅

The annual #Iditarod sled dog race in Alaska starts in just a few hours. Always inspiring to see these dogs ready to trek over 1,000 miles. Check out Emily Ford's huskies: https://emilyontrail.com/copy-of-share-a-trail - and the official map of the route attached here.

#UglyDogs I have photos and videos, but will post later. For now, here is a picture of the best girl, Pepe. She’s in lead with Whip who was on Q’s 2020 #Iditarod team with Kiwi.
