... anyone else viewing the iditarod via the live tracking portal?

http://race.ionearth.com/iditarod/ (you need to go through a very brief <e-mail address> registration first)

the ms virtual earth background gives a fairly good sense of what these teams are facing and of course how they are doing, relatively speaking.

makes me want to go north to alaska for a sled ride.

is doing the race for the first time at 21 years of life. Listening about it from his friends/family sounds amazing but WAY to cold for me (and I live in Siberia/Minneapolis).

Swoop- if you think that Moab in February is cold you need to check this out.
