Through the Lens: Iditarod

After over 9 months in Northwest Alaska, I have finally returned to the lower-48 and the warm, sunny state of Florida. Over the next few days, I'll try to finish posting photos and reflections from my last couple weeks in Nome, starting with the best of my Iditarod pics.

The crowd awaits the first musher, late Tuesday night
Winning musher Mitch Seavey arrives around 10:30pm

Aliy Zirkle arrives in 2nd place around 11pm 

The media mobs Mitch Seavey at the finish line

Jeff King arrives in 3rd place

Mitch Seavey and Aliy Zirkle less than an hour after arrival
