I wanted to make sure I had enough room for extra pictures so I started this new page. Will see if this video works as well as the one from the other day. I do hope saw that one of the dogs running.

The standings as of midnight (EST) BRENT SASS and DALLAS SEAVEY blew through GALENA and camped outside of the checkpoint. BRENT said from RUBY to GALENA he dogs looked strong and handled the drifts very well.  The day was warm and spring like. He is 20 miles ahead of DALLAS. BRENT is camped 5 miles outside GALENA. DALLAS is 18 miles from GALENA and on the YUKON resting. GALENA is a historic place where many great dogs have come from. Back to the standings:

BRENT SASS, DALLAS SEAVEY, (IN GALENA)

JESSIE HOLMES, RICHIE DIEHL,RYAN REDINGTON,AARON BURMEISTER, MITCH SEAVEY, MILLE PORSILD,TRAVIS BEALS,MICHELLE PHILLIPS.    ALL IN RUBY.

9 more in RUBY, 18 in CRIPPLE and 8 in OPHIR. JEFF KING is the only one that hasn't taken his mandatory 24 hour rest. FOUR of the top 10 mushers have taken their mandatory 8 hour rest. Till tomorrow!!

Just found this picture of LANCE MACKEY at CRIPPLE--an observer this year
