And they’re into Ruby! The top five mushers entered Ruby checkpoint, as follows:

Jessie Royer @ 6:37
Thomas Waerner @ 7:13
Aaron Burmeister @ 7:14
Brent Sass @ 7:50
Richie Diehl @ 8:44

Royer left the checkpoint at 11:35 this morning; the rest are still there. All five have completed their 24-hour rest period, but not the 8-hour.

Weather at Ruby: 14F and sunny.

Until next time,
Good day, and good dog!
