Warm Trails, Wind and Helicopter; 24's

Looks like Aliy is at Mile 350, traveling at 6mph, 38 degrees F, out of Ophir, officially reported as in 9th place, on these warm and wet trails.
And she dropped one dog, so has 15, don't know which dog until posted at her blog.

The Discovery Channel helicopter crashed while filming Rachael and Joe R in the Dalzell Gorge, pretty scary place to crash. http://www.ktuu.com/Global/story.asp?S=7972747
But the pilot and DC staff walked away. Also a small plane with a photographer crashed and both walked away. Word was that winds caused the problems.

Sounds like a tough year to chase the race as a tour group is socked in , I believe, in Rainy Pass, not expecting to get out until Friday.

See a few are 24ing in Takotna. Allen is into Takotna having camped along the way. Sue Morgan and Trent are out of Roh
