ID: Sunday Evening - Unalakleet and Koyukuk

The Red Team pulled into Unalakleet at 6.06pm and it looks like they will rest there for a few hours.

According to reports, the weather warmed considerably as they neared the coast and is around 0F but the typical coastal winds are blowing, giving the air a chill. The locals and volunteers build some low snow banks in rows at the checkpoint so teams can get some shelter as they rest.

Sebastian Schnuelle stopped by Tripod Flats cabin while the team was there and took some awesome pics - check them out here (click red link). He was also there when they neared Unalakleet - check out those pics here.

I don't think he'd mind if I used one in the blog - in this pic it looks like she has Scruggs in single lead but what I think is she has Scruggs and Scout in lead, Nacho and Izzy in swing, Scooter and Quito, Waylon and Chica, the two big lads Mismo and Mac, Schmoe and Sissy with Clyde and Willie in wheel.

The Black Team has arrived in Koyukuk at 7.41pm after taking a rest on the trail. We'd love to see something about them but, in the meantime, enjoy this pic Spencer took when he rode the tag sled on their final stretch out run on the Sunday before the Re-Start.
