Due to poor race route conditions through downtown Glennallen, the
Copper Basin 300 race start has been relocated to the Hub at the
Glenn/Richardson Highway junction. Still a convenient, accessible spot
for spectators who want to watch the race start, this location will
provide a safer start for the mushers and dogs. The Copper Valley
Chamber of Commerce Visitor Center will be open for spectators and
participants to get in out of the cold. Twenty three mushers have
signed up to date. The first musher leaves the chute at 10:00 a.m. on
January 12th, 2008!!
