Kalkaska Winterfest Midwest International Sled Dog Race
Kalkaska, Michigan, USA

March 3-4, 2012

Return to USA Midwest Race Results List

Results provided by Margaret Harvey, www.kalkaskawinterfest.com/

Conditions:
Saturday: Overnight blizzard with 15+ inches of wet, heavy snow caused many trees and branches to fall on the sled dog trail, which had to be removed before the trail could be re-packed. It was determined by the trail boss and Race Marshall that the only option was to cancel the events of the day, work on the trail,  and conduct a one day race on Sunday.

Sunday: Temps ranged from 14 to 17 degrees, partly to mostly sunny, light to moderate winds, the trail conditions and surface preparation were nothing short of a miracle!

Note: Unlimited/10-Dog class and 8-Dog class ran different mileages than originally posted, using the 6-Dog trail and making an extra loop, due to the storm damage to the longer trail that is normally used.

Whoa--did you ask for (this much) snow?
