Mushers: Conquering the Yukon Quest - Season 1 Episode 6
Teams reach the historic Gold Rush town of Dawson City, Yukon. There is a mandatory 24 hour layover here for mushers and dogs to rest and refuel. The handlers setup camps to care for the dogs. This is the only time during the race where the handlers are allowed to feed and care for the dogs. Normand Casavant walks us through the strategies for packing dozens of bags of food and supplies that are distributed to each checkpoint for each team. The extreme conditions and -50 degree Celsius temperatures force another 3 teams to scratch. Brent Sass already launched in the second part of the race and encounters a moose. Will he escape the largest living threat of the Yukon Quest trail?
