Jessie and his lead dogs. The 2 on the left led the way into Kotz while the whitish on on the right must have played a part. Not sure what at this moment. #Kobuk440
2026 Iditarod finisher Calvin Daugherty in Kotzebue at the Kobuk 440 finish line.
Celebrity siting in Kotz: Calvin Daughtery! He’s supporting Sadie and Sam who are both still out in the trail. #Kobuk440
#Kobuk440 has gone live on Facebook to stream Jessie's finish and the same tiny smudge on my laptop screen that confused me approximately 1,049 times during the Iditarod is once again convincing me I see his team in the distance every few seconds
A big high five to #Iditarod53 Champ Jessie Holmes for rocking the #Kobuk440! I know he enjoys this race and everyone involved, so I'm glad to see him doing so well. Keep it up dude! #MusherSky
#UglyDogs there’s video of Q coming into Ambler yesterday. He’s currently headed to Kobuk. The top 3 (Holmes, Hansen, Buser) are back in Ambler having run through the night. Kristy is almost back to Ambler having also completed the round trip. #Kobuk440 #MusherSky

Yeah the US is ruled by a mad King, our security and the global economy will never be the same, but the #Kobuk440 is happening in northern Alaska and there are trackybois to focus on! #MusherSky #UglyDogs @kobuk440.bsky.social
Blue sky and fresh snow on the sea ice at the Kobuk 440 start today! Mushers have some interesting sled adornments @blairbraverman.bsky.social #trackybois #uglydogs #kobuk440
Man Trail Crew 2 is smoking Trail Crew 1 and the rest of the field. ;) #Kobuk440 (it's been a craptastique week let me be ridiculous)
A screenshot of Quince Mountain and his sled dog team at the start of the Kobuk 440, there's a very flat stretch of snow, buildings on the left with blue sky above

Trackybois already at it. Q teleported from 0 to 1.3mi in 60 seconds. 🤣 #uglydogs #mushersky #kobuk440
The Kobuk 440 starts today at 12:30 am Alaska time. There will be trackers and if you have Facebook, they also post on there. They are on Twitter, but I don’t go there these days. I don’t think they are here, yet. #Kobuk440 #MusherSky #UglyDogs

It's the last big race of the mushing season and the excited madness kicks off at 4:30pm Eastern time! Remember when Q did the Kobuk 439.999 and then someone spotted Bler crouched along the side and headed over to her? #UglyDogs #MusherSky #Kobuk440 #Qbuk440

Quince is bib number 5 in the #Kobuk440.
MASS START starts at 12:30pm AKDT.
Quince Mountain is currently speaking at the musher bib draw ahead of drawing his number. Says he has to keep coming back to the #Kobuk440 until he tries every kind of sheet?fish? very hard to hear on the live feed.
Y'all know Lauro Eklund mushed from Nome to Kotzebue ahead of #Kobuk440, right?
#Kobuk440 Musher Roster and Race Preview is up on the blog.
