I just posted that Karin Hendrickson also had her sled eaten by the trail.

I think the temperature was getting to the dogs. Lance Mackey is down to 13 dogs, and there have been a lot of dogs dropped in the last day.

From the weather sticker I see the temperature has gotten down the a more normal -35° so puppies will be happier if the wind doesn’t come up.

He seems like such a great guy. I heard his lead dog died in August (I think), and he was planning on carrying his collar across the finish line in Nome.

After reading your post, I googled to see how he’s doing. On the bright side, it looks like he got out of this with basically a broken nose and cracked wrist. Which of course, isn’t great, but could have been lots worse. He seems to be mostly disappointed that he let down his dogs! For anyone interested, there’s a short video of an interview they did with him in his hospital bed along with a good article here: http://www.alaskadispatch.com/projects/iditarod-2010/4378-reflecting-on-a-race-over-too-soon
