What’s For Lunch
If you are Lance Mackey (47), it’s a seven course meal. Josh Rogers at Iditablog tells us What’s for Lunch in Anvik? Oh, yes, the Millenium Hotel, which provides the meal also hands the First Musher to the Yukon 3,500 one dollar bills. [It’s a tradition, it doesn’t have to make sense.] There is a mandatory 8-hour stop on the Yukon, so he really could stop for a lunch like this.
The back of the race is finishing up their mandatory 24-hour stop in McGrath.
Whatever the trail conditions are for others, the Super Sixteen that haul Lance from place to place don’t seem to mind.
