Lost musher found!
OK, he wasn’t lost at all – simply, his location was unknown for over 36 hours! Russian musher Michael Telpin pulled in to the Stepping Stone Hospitality stop, his team looking good, before noon local time, much to the joy of Quest fans around the world.
Trent Herbst crossed the finish line in 12th place in the early morning hours.
Several hours later, Gus Guenther finished, followed by Paige Drobny 20 minutes behind.
Yuka Honda crossed the line this afternoon, smiling about her 15ht place finish, and collecting the final piece of the purse.
Brian Wilmshurst and Misha Pedersen should arrive sometime overnight, with Marcelle Fressineau in Pelly Crossing, and current Red Lantern holder Michael Telpin approaching.
