For whatever reason, this year, the best way was to cut straight across and then go inbound to Koyuk parallel to the Koyuk outbound trail for the last ten miles or so. Wild way to get across that I've never seen before. It seems the GPS tracker looks for whatever the closest mile marker is to what they thought the trail has historically looked like. So, you'll notice that when a musher gets about halfway across this route, the GPS mile marker they are closest to flips to the one that is actually the mile marker for the presumed outbound trail which it makes it look like they have jumped ahead about 30 miles.Randynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023068524242748614.post-85397964308806397962010-03-15T14:36:11.078-08:002010-03-15T14:36:11.078-08:00Ah, so you can not follow the actual trail?

For a while, it will look like she's going backwards... and even that she has "jumped ahead" of those who have already been to Koyuk... The GPS works on "absolute" distance, not "trail distance"... Be patient... it will all work out soon...Macgellanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05414475206084334795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023068524242748614.post-58411598853311022692010-03-15T14:23:30.966-08:002010-03-15T14:23:30.966-08:00Awesome photos!

I like the idea of the leg warmers for the dogs. Chica is definitely doing very well. Mr Moore is also doing really well. Mr Macgellan and Ms Watkins must be very excited waiting in Nome for the teams to arrive.<br />from ChloeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2023068524242748614.post-88011141110365162522010-03-15T14:03:16.066-08:002010-03-15T14:03:16.066-08:00Not sure what I said in my last post, but it was s...Not sure what I said in my last post, but it was supposed to be Koyuk.
