And, it wouldn't be the CB300 if it wasn't cold. Remember, this is the race that is often hitting negative temps of -30 and several races in the last decade hit -60. This race is known as the toughest 300 miles, there are elevation changes, water crossings, and the cold. Oh, the cold.
And, yet, every year it is one of the most popular races boasting a roster of top tier racing kennels mixed witha few brave "rookies." It's certainly one way to test a musher's endurance.
Of course, this year, the opposite is true with the prediction of abnormally warm temps - balmy infact, but we'll talk about that later.
As always, here's a run down of the roster as it stands ahead of race day. Once the musher meeting happens (scheduled for Friday, January 10, at 6pm) and the final roster complete with starting order is set the list will be edited to reflect any changes.
Honorary musher with bib number one (and silent start) Rick Wilson.
