The moon is only 4% illuminated, but it is waxing. The sunrise is about 8AM AKST and sunset at 6:30PM AKST with daylight increasing by 6 minutes a day. You really don’t want to deal with Happy Valley Steps or the Dalzell Gorge at night.
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.
