Iditarod 2016 – Day 4

Iditarod 2016 MapSled DogThis morning it looks like Dallas is going to take his 24-hour in Cripple, the halfway point on the race. Takotna is the most popular checkpoint for the 24-hour and they have developed the resources to deal with it.

Hans Gatt, veteran musher and well known sled builder has decided to scratch. He was one of the first builders advocating the sled with the ‘trailer’.

The Mushers in bold are former winners of the Iditarod, while italics indicates Yukon Quest winners. The numbers in parentheses are their Bib numbers. The small “R” indicates a total rookie, while the small “Q” indicates an Iditarod rookie who has completed a Yukon Quest.

These are the official standings. That means they are official, not that they are correct. Things jump around a lot as people decide to update the standings. This problem is especially bad in the back of the pack, as no one bothers to update those standings when the lead is changing.

This post will be updated during the day, and the map changed on all posts to reflect the current situation.
