Can-Am Crown Races
Fort Kent, Maine, USA
March 3-6, 2007
Return to USA East Race Results List
Results provided by Stan Flagg
Can-Am Crown, Inc.
Conditions:
Eight inches of snow fell the night before the races, providing twice as much cushioning as we really wanted. The trail crew was out Friday night and early Saturday grooming the trails, which were soft but not punchy. The races began on Saturday morning, March 3. The lunar eclipse on Saturday night was sometimes visible through the broken clouds.
Weekend temperatures held mostly in the 20's, but Monday the temps fell and wind started to pick up. Late Monday and early Tuesday were below zero with visibility limited occasionally by strong gusts that whipped up the snow. Weather alternated between fair and flurries.
The 250-mile race had perhaps the most exciting finish in Can-Am Crown's history. Don Hibbs was in the lead throughout most of the race, but 9 miles from the finish he was passed by Rick Larson. Then Rita Wehseler passed Hibbs just 1/2 mile from the finish. She came speeding across the finish line shortly after Larson and was overjoyed to be the first woman to win second place in the grueling 250-mile race.
RRT (Race Run Time) is calculated as the musher's leg times + total layovers - mandatory layovers + time penalties - time credits.
