March 4, 2011

2011 Iditarod race news (Updated): I've been digging around trying to find information about shuttle buses and parking for the Willow, Alaska 2011 Iditarod restart, and ... (updated) ... the iditarod.com website just put up this Willow restart page, with information on parking and shuttle buses.

Here's the abbreviated 2011 Iditarod shuttle bus info:

Volunteers can get a bus leaving the Sports Complex at 9am. Tickets are $2 for adults, children under 12 are free. (No word on return shuttles.)
