2024 Yukon Quest (Canada) musher roster

Whitehorse is gonna be busy this weekend as it sees the start of the 2024 Yukon Quest (Canadian side). Cold temperatures and icy conditions have modified the start plans and played a role in roster changes. Still, there's a strong list of teams in the 450 and 100 races. The 250 saw the largest drop in names with just two remaining. There are two mushers still trying to make it to the race - given special permission to be late - as their dog truck died on them shortly after entering Canada and they had to be towed back to Tok, Alaska. Fingers are crossed the Squids make it to the starting line (as such they do not have bib numbers as they missed the draw.)

As stated on the previous roster for the Alaskan Quest you kinda wonder what the races would look like if the boards would combine efforts, find a common ground, and put on another 1000 mile race crossing the border... with a 300 and 100 in the mix as well. Pipe dreams...

The YQ250 originally had 4 names on the roster, but two dropped out last minute so the two teams still in it were given two bibs (guessing due to sponsor commitments). 

But you're just here to learn about the teams, not to get all the random details of drama. Let's get to it.

So who are you rooting for? Any surprises on the roster? Predictions for who wins? Comment below with your thoughts!

If you like what you see and want to support my addiction (I mean HOBBY) of following these races and stalking (I mean cheering on) the mushers, you can buy me a slice of pizza (that really goes to paying for my internet/web expenses).
