  • Preparing for the Yukon Quest: a Rookies’ Guide
    Preparing for the Yukon Quest: A Rookies’ guide 1. Overview Expect the Quest to be cold, very cold. Temperatures of minus 50F to minus 60F are not uncommon. On the other hand, it can be as warm as +40F. Be prepared to rely on yourself for long stretches. There are 9 checkpoints – not counting the start and finish. They range from 50 miles to 200 miles between them. The cold and the isolation can be very devastating to mushers. Obviously there is the physical aspect. You can easily freeze your fingers or feet and be out of the game. But consider and take very seriously the mental aspect. Severe cold sucks not only warmth, but energy and good spirits as well. Getting depressed will take you out as surely as frozen fingers will. In the cold, there is more to do and even the smallest of chores become more challenging and will take a longer time to execute. Hydration and caring for yourself and the team becomes critical. You will wear bulkier clothes and more of them, and you must guard against sweating in them. Your level of frustration will rise. The dogs will need to wear coats and in many cases flank and penis sheath protection. They will need to eat more calories and their food will need to be warm. Staying hydrated will be challenging but essential. Even your hand warmers will freeze and become useless unless you warm them first. Alkaline batteries must stay warm to function. Know your gear; how it functions in the cold, the wet, and the wind.

  • A Family Float Trip Down the Yukon River by John Morton
    Refuge Notebook • Vol. 10, No. 39 • October 17, 2008 A family float trip down the Yukon River by John Morton the Yukon Quest. But it’s equally challenging when young kids are involved and you’re worried about making sure they’re having fun and are SAFE. This is a tall order when they’re inhaling mosquitoes, pad- dling through water as cold as ice with big hydraulics or camping in bear country. Our “wilderness” trip got a rocky start as we passed a sign below Whitehorse that cautioned about treated effluent being discharged into the river. Sev- eral miles below town we ran into a grocery cart stick- ing out of a muddy bar in a bend on the river. As we paddled across the 30-mile long Lake Lebarge, made famous by Robert Service’s poetic celebration of the Cremation of Sam McGee, we saw abundant signs of humans everywhere: tent sites, rusted cans, old cables, and broken glass. But gradually these modern archaeological arti- facts disappear as we get into dining on grayling and wild onions further down the river.

  • MEDIA RELEASE Homecoming for Race Marshal
    MEDIA RELEASE Homecoming for Race Marshal Harris for the 2018 Yukon Quest August 15, 2017 (Whitehorse, YT & Fairbanks, AK) – The Yukon Quest 1,000 Mile International Sled Dog Race will see a former Race Marshal return for the 2018 race. Doug Harris joins the race team as Race Marshal to head up the officials. Harris comes with ample experience having served as a Race Judge in 1999, Race Marshal in 2000 and 2001, YQ300 Race Marshal in 2009, and a Rules Committee member in 2003. Harris also brings his passion for long distance travel by dog team with him. He has participated in a one-month cross country sled dog journey from Dawson City, Yukon to Fort McPherson, NWT, return, and is a finisher of the Yukon Quest having completed the race in both 1996 and 1998. “The Yukon Quest has evolved over the years, and thrived to improve the support and safety to the mushers and their dogs on the trail,” says Harris. “In that spirit, I am looking forward to working in collaboration with the mushers, volunteers on the trail and in the checkpoints, veterinary team and the Yukon Quest organization to ensure the 2018 Yukon Quest race is a success.” Harris will be joined with familiar faces on the race team including Head Veterinarian Nina Hansen, Race Manager Alex Olesen, and Assistant Race Manager Briana Mackay. Head Vet Dr. Nina Hansen brings eight years of specific Yukon Quest experience to her role, with the 2018 race being the fourth year as Head Vet. Additionally, Hansen has worked with other mid-distance races in Alaska, including a 10-year run with the Copper Basin 300, to date.
