Baker in K300 lead

The K300 leaderboard shows John Baker leaving Kalskag at 00:04:00, however according to Will Peterson of KYUK who is in Kalskag, Baker left Kalskag at 04:00:00. Thus he has his 6 hour layover complete, and is in a lead pack of 6 racers all within 17 minutes of each other and with their mandatory layovers complete. The leaders are expected in Aniak shortly. We hope to get interviews and photos from the turnaround there within the next few hours. Most if all of these teams will spend little time in Aniak and head back to Kalskag. Top 6 are John Baker, Ed Iten, Jeff King, Martin Buser, Pete Kaiser, and Mitch Seavey.
