Surprise Gift for Aliy Zirkle being first Musher to Grayling

There is perks to being first in the Iditarod. Not only do you have a freshly broken trail, now well, that is not always a perk, but any how, coming into Grayling in first place, Aily Zirkle was the recipient of some beautiful hand made beaver fur – moose hide mitts locally made by Sue Nicholi. What a treat they are. And boy just the smell of natural wood smoke pulling them out of the bag for a picture! A truely nice gift to remember, thank you Sue!!!
