eeneR 1 #1 March 7, 2016 So I have to say I am thoroughly impressed at the coverage and tech put into this years race. I've been a "check in" once in awhile to see what i going on for years past. This year it is a whole new level of awesome! Live GPS tracking, Live video from check points and pictures galore! Any other fans of dog sports watching this race?She is not a "Dumb Blonde" - She is a "Light-Haired Detour Off The Information Superhighway." eeneR TF#72, FB#4130, Incauto Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

billvon 2,659 #6 March 8, 2016 >I read they had to truck in snow for the starting line. Last year they had to move the starting line north to find snow. I guess they have a more high-tech solution now. (Next up - snow guns) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gowlerk 2,057 #13 March 13, 2016 I guess he lives in a place where you can almost always get away with drunken sledding. Likely to kill yourself, but not others. I think they will need a MADD chapter. Mushers Against Drunk Drivers. Where I live alcohol fueled snowmobile accidents are not at all rare.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free.
