How much food do I need? Can we have feeder boats or crews at Little Salmon or Minto?
What you eat and what you can stomach in an event like this is up to you (for tips see “How Not to Blow the Race”), but you can only be fed at Carmacks. In order to preserve the wilderness qualities of this race, and to be fair to all racers, the YRMPA concluded that support will only be allowed at the 7-hour Carmacks checkpoint. Plan to carry enough food and water to sustain you between Whitehorse and Carmacks, and between Carmacks and Dawson. If you are seen getting help at other points along the race with road access, you will be disqualified. No feeder boats of any kind are allowed.
