Mitch Seavey made Iditarod history on Tuesday afternoon, shattering the race speed record and winning his third championship as the race’s oldest victor, breaking his own record from 2013. His finish also set the stage for a storied afternoon of accomplished mushers’ arrivals under the Burled Arch.
The photos below show, in chronological order, the elder Seavey’s progress from the outskirts of Nome (the areas sometimes called Fort Davis and “Farley’s Camp”) to the finish line on Front Street.
