A map of the Yukon Quest trail superimposed over its elevation profile. The race alternates directions and starts in Fairbanks, AK (USA) in even-numbered years and in Whitehorse, YT (Canada) in odd-numbered years, so we cannot compare data checkpoint to checkpoint. We divided the race into quarters, as shown, to determine where dogs are likely to be dropped.
