Gary's Problem

     Today we learned that Gary Paulsen made many mistakes after the Official Restart. He tipped over and dragged behind his sled. While he tried to pull the snow out of his jacket, he forgot to watch where he was going. His lead dog turned down the wrong trail and Gary didn't even notice! Cookie led his team 60 miles up into some mountains on the WRONG trail. And...worse than that, there were about 30 teams following him! They all had to turn around and go back 60 miles to the REAL Iditarod Trail. If you were one of the mushers who followed Gary, how would you feel?

  3. Snickers looks just like my old dog Baxter. We had to put him down last Christmas it was the sadest thing ever. His birthday was on Holloween.

  7. I think dogs need to work together because otherwise they would go the wrong way.

  8. I would feel stupid if I followed others instead of paying atention. Those who did not follow have a huge lead now.
