Update from Dawson City Checkpoint - Valentine's Day 2007 Richie Beattie (12 dogs), Mike Jayne (8 dogs) and Brent Sass (12 dogs) all arrived in Dawson City within 40 minutes of each other, just as night began to fall, as they completed their respective runs from Scroggie Creek to their mandatory layovers. This puts 13 teams into Dawson City, half of the 26 teams remaining in the race. John Schandelmeier and Dave Dalton arrived between 3 and 4 pm, with 12 and 11 dogs, respectively; giving a brief hour of excitement in the middle of the day for the crowd gathering in Dawson City to see the dog teams arrive. With a gap of about 5 hours between the recently arrived teams and the next group to leave Scroggie Creek, it is likely that this evening will be much like last night with most of the frenetic activity coming just after midnight.
