Hi Kathi,
Congratulations to you and Bill on an amazing accomplishment. I really enjoyed looking at your pictures. My favorites are the angry moose outside Skwentna and the shelter cabin outside Elim. The shelter cabin picture does such a good job of illustrating how windy it was out there - a hard thing to depict in a photograph.
Thanks again for your dedication to organizing this crazy event and your passion to see it through!
Kathi,
A quick thank you note for posting your Iditarod photographs. In a word... Wow! They REALLY capture the entire adventure from start to finish. How you took photos under such extreme conditions is beyond my comprehension!
Congratulations on your first trip to Nome and thanks for sharing your amazing adventure with us.
