A five year old male named Maynard in the team of Warren Palfrey (Yellowknife NWT, Canada) died on the trail between Safety and Nome late last evening.  The incident occurred about an hour before Palfrey's arrival.    

A necropsy will be conducted by a board certified pathologist to make every attempt to determine the cause of death.
