Central Checkpoint



Hi all, Paige and the pups rolled in in 5th place to Central last night about midnight after a succesful run over Eagle Summit. Sounds like the trail over the summit was great. In past years some bad things have happened to folks up there, but this year the conditions on the down side were awesome and everyone had a good run. Trail was a bit rough from the base of Eagle to Central, but the dogs came in looking like they could have continued forever. Paige had to stay for a mandatory 6 hour layover and decided to give the dogs a little extra rest.


The dogs were camped out in the park in Central and Paige was able to catch some sleep in the tight little musher cabin... she was lucky as the truck was mighty cold for this handler.
She pulled out around 8 am for her 75 mile run to Circle. At Circle she will rest the dogs and head on back to Central for the finish. Paige should be into Circle sometime around 4 or 5 pm this afternoon. Check back to see how she is doing.
