What everyone has been wondering! (feel free to like and share to get the word out)2016 Iditarod trail report from Race Marshall Mark Norman:(Paraphrased form press meeting 3-2-2016) – Trail is hard and fast this year. – Around Skwentna there is over 4ft of snow. – Dalzell Gorge – 8 days of trail work done to fix the ice and debris at the bottom of the notorious Dalzell Gorge. There was huge chunks of ice towering over 8 ft, something Mark has never seen before. – Nikolai is good.- Mcgrath has more snow.- Opir to Cripple is not travelled often so they put in the trail. There is 2 ft of snow in Cripple.- Kaltag and Unalakleet is rough this year (trail breakers were working on it during our Wednesday afternoon meeting).- Coast – low snow that is typical of past years.Just a reminder, we will be covering the start and re-start live, so tune in for more action!Also, we are giving away free subscriptions, go to our mushing magazine facebook page and like our post!https://www.facebook.com/mushingmagazinellc/?fref=ts
