In Anchorage

Rohn has a chat with Neil Young before going through Anchorage.

Ceremonial Start

Rohn heading through Anchorage with his brother Nikolai acting as a handler behind him. Mushers are required to take a handler through Anchorage because of all the road crossings and potential obstacles.

Getting Close Feb. 25

Rohn is very calm consdiering his upcoming trek. He and Martin are sorting dogs and we will soon know who gets which dog.

He'd like to thank a few new sponsors: Dr. Jesse Hronkin, Aunt Pat, and Dr. Broyles. Dad took care of most of the dog expenses but his part of the deal is to pay for entry fee, shipping of dog food, freight for dogs and sleds from Nome and his ticket home. And any hamburgers he buys along the way!!!

He was recently accepted to the University of Washington. Waiting to hear from RPI in New York.

EATING OUT ....

on the trail. Rohn and his Dad like mostly all the same food but Rohn got some of his favorites sent out ~ spaghetti with meat sauce, chili, moose stew, chocolate cake and SCOOBY Snacks.
