Yukon Quest: Back For More After Nearly A Decade Away

  • Editor and/or Contributors

This year’s Yukon Quest roster is dominated by veterans, but some of them haven’t run the race since the mid- 1990’s. They say they’re feeling like experienced rookies, but they all have a reason to finish.It’s been a decade since Darren Lee lined out his team to run the Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race. The Chistochina musher was forced scratch from the race in 2002 and 2003. “This just seemed to be the year to do it.
