Last year a person in the Iditarod gave theirs to a pilot as a prank who flew ahead and over the radio we heard "so-and-so" is flashing into the lead. Are they going to do something to prevent that?
We loved it and laughed our butts off for hours on that one.....

I know there is some tactical play with when some of the mushers have their Spot on, but I must say being able to see where they are or have been is a definite benefit to the race. Definitely adds interest to it imo.

Very interesting seeing the GPS - some off them really go off road/trail. Thanks for the post.
