Aily arrives in Kaltag!

Aily is the first musher to arrive in Kaltag!! She has about 3 hours on the nearest Musher...John Baker and Mitch. Baker is running right in front of Mitch, and right behind them is Burmiester. Dallas and King have also left Nulato, and Mitch dropped back and is now are 28 miles from Kaltag! Aily is probably settling in for some rest and hot meals for her Team in Kaltag, they deserve it by just finishing an incredible 135 mile run from their 8 hour rest in Galena! Will she slip out right before the next Musher arrives? Some of these Teams rested in Nulato...like Dallas, King and Dee Dee...they all rested 2 to 4 hours before hitting the trail to Kaltag. Mitch rested earlier on the Yukon, so he blew right through. Burmiester and Baker seem to have a lot of reserves, and are showing their Teams strengths...its a long way yet to go. It will be interesting to see if Aily cuts out before they get there, or shortly after they arrive.
