Looks like Buser and his well rested Team is leaving Kaltag in pursuit of Aliy! We don't know yet if Aliy will stop at the BLM Shelter cabin at a Tripod Flats or continue on for a bigger haul to a old Woman Cabin or even Unalakleet. That would be a monster haul for her and typically not her style. But the odd thing is she didn't take straw with her leaving Kaltag....if she did take straw that would be a sure sign of a camping stop along the way. She may have stashed some straw in an inside pocket of her sled during her 8 hour break way back in Nulato, but again not typical to haul straw that far. So it begs to question if she is planning on stopping for a few hours rest somewhere....or will she simply snack rest her Team all the way to Unalakleet. I would bet for a real rest stop but the fact she didn't pack straw (that we know of) is perplexing. I guess I will just have to stay here at IditaDacks Armchair Musher Headquarters a bit longer till I see her GPS tracker stop moving to indicate a rest stop on the trail. Right now she is traveling at 8 mph, and Martin Buser is just starting down the trail from a good 3.5 hour rest in Kaltag.
