Don Bowers Memorial 200/300
Willow, Alaska
January 28-29 2005
Results provided by Mike Bishop
Conditions:
Start at -15F, finish +10F, good trails, some moose.
Wolves chewed up trail markers around Joe May's cabin.
This race was dedicated to the memory of Keli Mahoney, musher, pilot, and friend to many of us here.
Winning time for 200 almost 9 hours /faster/ than last year, so we must
have groomed all the trails right
(1st/2nd places are Iditarod veterans)..
Those who scratched were rookies running their first long distance race, and even they reported having a good time.
