Silver, left, the lead dog of Yukon Quest 300 musher Brent Sass, rests with his lead partner Madonna in Central on the third day of racing at the 2006 Yukon Quest International Sled Dog Race Monday, Feb. 13, 2006 at the Central checkpoint. Silver broke trail off of Eagle Summit for both Sass and Yukon Quest rookie Regina Wycoff as the pair worked together to navigate through high winds and whiteout conditions that left another group of mushers lost and stranded on the mountain. The pair also had a musher with them who had lost his team. All mushers and teams were found safe and were transported by helicopter off the mountain.
