Back in Övre Sapporo. Jörg left Saivo at 8.46 am together with Milos Gonda. They are close together, but like ususal I have no further informations who is leading now. But Jörg left Saivo in a good drive with Fränk and Jaja in lead. He had to left Hinault behind. He has the whole season some problems with the left frontleg and he was limping a little bit now. So Jörg would not get any risk to load him into the sled and left him with me. Now he is laying in the trailer.
Just this moment Jörg called me. He is in heavy storm and the trail is completily blown away and the dogs have to break trail. He had now about 40 km, so half of the way from Saivo to Soppero.

In the checkpoint with blankets on
Are we moving on now?
