I scratched in Mile 101

Yesterday evening I started from Mile 101 to Central. On the way I had some problems on the icy parts and when the trail got up in the windy sections my dogs didn’t want to go ahead and I couldn’t convince them to do so. So I returned to Mile 101 and after I sleep I decided to scratch. The dogs, and I, are all well.

    Hi Andy,
    Very sorry to hear that you had to scratch. I guess that it must have been rough…..you did well in that wind on the Denali Highway at Christmas!
    The good news is that you and the dogs are all OK.
    I hope you have the chance to try again sometime, because I’m sure that you can do it!
    Good luck!
