Dan in his official bib (photo from the Yukon Quest)
Tomorrow is the day, Dan and the team will start the 2013 Yukon Quest. Tonight before getting what may be the last good night’s sleep in a bed I get for awhile I thought it would be fun to introduce everyone to the team that will be running with Dan on this adventure.
Dan’s ‘mug shot’ in his bib was taken at the start banquet, and can be found along with all of the mushers in the Yukon Quest – 2013 Bib Draw photo album. If you are following along at home you can watch real time GPS trackers at the Yukon Quest website. There should also be good updates on the Yukon Quest facebook. And I will do what I can to blog while I am handling for Dan.
And now…
the moment you all have been waiting for…
