A little bit about the race:
The Race aims are to determine which musher’s team will cover the race trail distance in the shortest time in compliance with the regulations established by the IPSSSDR. The fastest team each day will start in the last position the next day. This procedure will be followed throughout each stage of the race. The overall leader and/or the previous stage winner may be required to wear the designated leader bib.
SLED
Each musher may choose his own sled providing that it meets the necessary IPSSSDR requirements, that is tandem hitch with one tow line and not fan type hitch. Braking devices must be placed between the runners and not extend beyond the length of the runners; all sleds must be provided with a brush bow. The sled must contain a sled bag capable of hauling any injured dogs as well as carrying mandatory equipment and food.
A musher may start the race with no more than twelve (12) dogs on the tow line at any time. No dogs will be allowed in the basket. Dogs will be chosen from a maximum pool of sixteen (16) dogs. No dog may be added to a team once a stage has started.
So it is a weekend of "fast and furious" here in Jackson Hole! We are off to the starting line.....
