Sled dog news! Jessie Holmes, dogs win 2025 Iditarod.

"Smiling from ear to ear, pumping his arms in the air, he celebrated his win as a crowd closed in on the chute to usher him to the finish line. After setting the snow hook under the burled arch, he went to his dogs, thanked each one of them and posed with his lead dogs Hercules and Polar before handing out steaks."

Help fund rural Alaskan schools during the #iditarod2025

"The igivearod is a loosely-organized, volunteer-directed, fundraising drive that runs alongside races in Alaska. In the past it has centered on the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race (not affiliated with the Iditarod Trail Committee); however, fundraising efforts expanded to include other races such as the Iditarod Trail Invitational and the Kobuk 440. We do not take donations ourselves, but help direct potential donors to schools listed on the crowdfunding website DonorsChoose.

"A focus has been on supporting Alaskan schools with a particular emphasis on remote and rural communities like those that make the race possible. The communities often need help funding essential items like tables, chairs, and books for their students, or for classroom enrichment items like art supplies, music equipment, and Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) teaching kits.

It's five above zero in Minneapolis Thursday morning, heading for a high of 16℉.

NWS: Warming trend will produce highs in the 30s this weekend and the 40s early next week.

There's an excellent piece with beautiful photography in the local paper this morning about a well-known Duluth outdoorswoman who's running the Iditarod with her “16 best friends.”
