Food 11: McGrath - Iditarod


Pirep Food 11: McGrath – Iditarod

It had just stopped snowing when I left MCG. Vis was low so I followed a road after Tatalina. Looking at the map it showed to be the Iditarod Trail. I followed it past Moore Creek when I lost it turning into the hills. Used GPS to get to Flat where I headed north and soon picked up Oxbow. Offloaded and did some repair work. Oil seeping through. Tightened some connections and that stopped the seeping. Decided to fly to Unalakleet instead of that hard wooden floor at Kaltag. I could also fill up with gas there. Plus Saturday night = fried fish night! See you around folks!
