Zach and I had the weird pleasure of attending the restart of the 2006 Iditarod in Williow, AK, which is about 2 hours north of Anchorage. A truly Alaskan experience.
The restart is held the day after the ceremonial start which was in Anchorage to Eagle River. In Willow the restart took place on a frozen lake. We arrived a couple of hours before the start time and viewed the teams and walked around the lake. There was a good crowd, thousands of dogs and some interesting characters. Jeff King won the race getting into Nome 9 days 11 hours and change after the start.
