T<\/span>he stove was dead and the cabin was cold when I got up at 3am. By now, my routines were dialed in. Everything had a place in a bag and in the pulk. I knew blindly where to find my stuff, what to grab when going into checkpoints, and how to organize my resupplies quickly, without being overwhelmed by endless decisions. I find it rather amazing how one can adapt quickly and suddenly become comfortable in a very unwelcoming and challenging environment. So if you think you could never do this, my response would be: you very likely could.<\/p>\n

Slowly but certainly I was leaving behind the pretty mountains, moving steadily through mostly open tundra toward the Unalakleet River. Once on the river, a sign indicated that it was 10 miles to town. A lot of blank ice was waiting for me. Thankfully the trail took a couple of overland shortcuts across river bends. Last but not least, I had to cross the frozen lagoon before I arrived in Unalakleet. I was told to expect the worst winds, but there was zero wind when I got into town. A local told me that he’s glad that he does not have to walk at a 45 degree angle today. I guess that says it all. The first musher who makes it to Unalakleet receives the Gold Coast Award, which includes $2,500 in gold nuggets. I was going to get pizza. I followed my GPS to the Peace on Earth pizza place, where I found peace immediately by ordering the largest pizza and grabbing the last beer from their fridge. I ate half the pizza and saved the other half for the next day.<\/p>\n

My timing wasn’t perfect: at 8pm, there would be a party with 40 Iditarod officials, vets, doctors, pilots, etc. Ughs. I found a spot to get some sleep in their “Saloon,” a retired hairdressing studio that now served as a storage space. It was cozy and warm. Thankfully I had earplugs in my kit and slept like a baby. I left shortly after midnight to tackle the potentially challenging stretch to Shaktoolik. As we shall learn tomorrow, I was not disappointed by the challenges.<\/p>\n

And…any guesses what happened to the pizza I had packed for the next day?<\/p>\n
