Iditarod 40: The Trail. McGrath to Takotna

March 7, 2012 by robertforto Leave a Comment

Iditarod 40: The Trail. McGrath to Takotna     18 miles

The trail leaves McGrath at the east end of Runway Seven, the same place where it enters. Crossing the Kuskokwim River to the mouth of the Takotna River and turning west, the trail continues over Porcupine Ridge to Takotna. The terrain is gentle rolling hills with moderate grades and is mainly spruce timber with a few open areas. This is a well-traveled trail and should present no problems.

Takotna (Ta-COT-na) — (TAK) Lat 63.00 Long 156.04 — Population 49 — Situated on the banks of the Takotna River, this town has a store and restaurant. This is one of the smallest towns with one of the biggest welcomes.
