 MARCH 13th CONT'D

As of 11pm EST standings are: DALLAS SEAVEY, AARON BURMEISTER and BRENT SASS all in ROHN but now DALLAS has left and is camping 20 miles outside ROHN. In a short time, AARON and BRENT passed by DALLAS.

RYAN REDINGTON,JOAR ULSOM, WADE MARRS and RICHIE DIEHL are in NIKOLAI along with 16 total there with 12 in McGRAPH. 6 are left in OPHIR all the teams going south now BUT 2 in IDITAROD. The TWINS are 24, 25 and MARTIN BUSER is 27th

AARON BURMEISTER wins the BRISTOL BAY NATIVE CORP FISH FIRST AWARD (WHEW!) being the first to arrive in ROHN(s). He wins 25 lbs of fresh Bristol Bay salmon filets, $2,000 and a wood burned art piece by Apay'uq Moore. BRISTOL BAY is home of the worlds largest wild sockeye salmon fishing. Fishing and fish are always a priority here. Both dog mushing and fishing are long standing traditions in BRISTOL BAY. 

Looking forward, the FAREWELL BURN will be in better shape going back as it has snowed which will cover up those roots and that dirt--hopefully. The POST GLACIER and BUFFALO TUNNEL will still be a challenge. 

One of the Trail Breakers. Big job to get the trails passable and as groomed as possible.
