Iditarod Trailbreakers Are On The Move

With only a week to take advantage of colder weather and at least a little more snow,  Iditarod Trailbreakers will leave Willow, Alaska on Tuesday, March 2nd to begin the hard job of making the trail from Willow to Rainy Pass passable. Little snow and warm weather have combined to create demanding conditions all the way to Nikolai Checkpoint on the first third of the the trail that teams will travel on.  We are asking for all race fans to "Think Snow"!
