Good Morning #UglyDogs! Quick update. Just caught Wade Marrs coming into Takotna. Team is perky and very vocal. Looks like several contenders may be taking their 24. Riley Dyche bypassed Takotna and is on his way to Ophir. He’s currently camped on the trail. #Iditarod54 #MusherSky
Sam’s team is also not happy to be stopped. Jaye had a difficult run. She crashed. Hooked her handlebars on a tree. Part her sled is damaged. Send your thought to Jaye. As I suspected, she needs some rest and love. Her team looks great. Send her some mushergrams!! #UglyDogs #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
Rainy Pass feed keeps dropping. Darn satellites. Or rather lack of. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
I think @[email protected] is on the Insider chat? It would appear that one of Jayes girls is in heat (Jaye mentioned this in one of her FB posts). So that would explain the delay. lol some of the dogs want to get a little loving in on the trail. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
Sadie Lindquist with a team of Mitch Seavey dogs is coming into Finger Lake. Dogs are perky, ears up. Seems a little less windy. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
Matt Hall and Travis have checked in at Rainy Pass. Both teams look great. Both will take straw and supplies and head back out to camp on the trail. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
Mille is into Rainy Pass and is staying. I’ve missed Jodi’s commentary! Matt Hall should be in soon followed by Travis and Paige. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
I hope they get an interview. Someone’s dogs are barking. Not sure if it’s Jayes team. Did I mention how beautiful they look? Tails wagging, borking, ready to go longer! #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
Jaye is in after several stops on the lake. Not sure what the issue is. Dogs are mightily unhappy to be stopped. They look beautiful!!! Jaye need more weight in the sled! She’s stopping in FL. Suspect she needs rest more than the dogs. Wind sucks. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
I can see Jaye, barely due to blowing snow. Not sure if the team is having a hard time navigating the wind. It’s ripping through Finger Lake. #Iditarod54 #Mushersky
