Mary Shields, the first woman to complete the Iditarod, dies at age 80.

Even more than 50 years after her historic ride, Mary Shields was still inspiring the next generation of female mushers. Shields, the first woman to finish the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, died earlier this week in Fairbanks at age 80. She was remembered as an amiable Alaskan whose love for her dogs and adventure outpaced her inclination to race. Shields finished 23rd in the 1974 Iditarod, a spot ahead of Lolly Medley, to secure her spot as the first woman to finish the race. RIP

The opening, which extends to the Teklanika Rest Area, gives the public a brief access window before transit buses return for the season. Officials urge the public to be aware of changing weather conditions as well as bears becoming more active.

The 2025 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, also known as "The Last Great Race," is now scheduled to run from Fairbanks to Nome, moving it closer to its original historic route. March 3, 2025, marks the fourth time in history that the Iditarod will restart in Fairbanks.

Most of this year’s Iditarod route is fine. Its first leg is an open question. In spite of low snow across much of Alaska, most of this year’s upcoming Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race will proceed as usual along the course’s southern route. But one high-visibility section of the event, the Sunday restart on Willow Lake where teams officially set off on the race, might have to be substantially changed up.

The Parks Highway was closed in both directions north of Cantwell on Friday after debris from an avalanche crossed the roadway.

The avalanche at Mile 219 closed the Parks Highway as of 10 a.m. Friday, according to the Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities. Crews were working through the day to clear 6-foot-deep debris from the road and mitigate slide risks, and the state transportation department said it anticipated reopening the highway around 11 p.m., citing “unanticipated rock that came down in the avalanche fall” as a reason for the extended closure.
