Iditarod '93  - 24 Mushers made the story.


After the 23rd dog musher finished at Nome, 24 unfinished mushers were stopped in White Mountain (name of a place on the trail) by bad weather. Mr.Keizo Funatsu was one of them. He shared the "Rookie of the year" prize with another rookie. All 24 mushers were aimed at the goal together after the weather changed. Mushers made a line such as this. Trail's visibility was white outed by snow. They forged a trail from White Mountain to Safety then made a line again for the goal together.
