A pack of front runners just treated the Carmacks volunteers to a hit and run through the Carmacks checkpoint. There was a flurry of excitement at the recently quiet checkpoint when 7 mushers entered within 30 minutes of each other. The majority collected their supplies, had their dogs examined by the veterinary staff and headed back out on the trail. Many spent only 10-20 minutes taking care of business.Only two mushers chose to stay, Richie Beattie and Kelley Griffin. Willomitzer, Kleedehn, Phillips, Gatt and Pinard are all making their way towards the dog drop at McCabe Creek. Many spent only 10-20 minutes efficiently taking care of business.
Hugh Neff arrived at the Carmacks Checkpoint at 4:56 pm. Hugh quickly went through his drop bags, pulled the hook and started on his way towards McCabe Creek at 5:04 pm.
