ID: Monday Afternoon - Koyuk and Kaltag

Woohoo! Aliy and the Red Team have arrived into Koyuk and are currently sitting in third position, less than three hours behind the leaders. Remember folks, there's a bit of racing left to go! There is roughly 170 miles until Nome.

Seeing the video of her team coming in, she has Quito up front in single lead. She's switching leaders around depending on what's going on and Quito and Scout have been sharing the duties lately. Bruce Lee explained that the reason they are travelling at a lower speed than earlier in the race is there has been new snow and it hasn't "set up" yet. He likened it to running through loose sand. All the front teams will be experiencing the same conditions.

We can't tell how long she will rest the team in Koyuk but it will be whatever she feels the team needs.

In the meantime, the Black Team pulled into Kaltag at 1.08pm, making the run over from Nulato in 4 hours, 52 minutes. Once rested, they leave the Yukon River and head over the portage towards to coast and Unalakleet checkpoint.
