Holmes leads with Strathe & Turner give chase

Jessie Holmes has a three mile lead over the closest competition as the top teams make way for the finish Monday morning. The reigning Copper Basin champion is about forty miles away from defending his title in a commanding fashion.

Close behind are the teams of Cody Strathe and Dave Turner. Strathe and Turner are about three miles behind the leader, but trackers are coming through a sketchy area where updates are random. 

Deke Naaktgeboren is somewhere close to the final checkpoint, his tracker hasn't updated in a long while.

With 40ish miles go go teams have 7-9 hours of mushing left depending on trail conditions.
