Read this excerpt from Susan Butcher and the Iditarod Trail.
What can a reader infer based on the information in the
excerpt?
The wind was fierce, often blowing the sled over and
keeping the dogs at a slow trot. Togo went steadily on.
The storm had swept much of the snow off the trail and
exposed the glare ice below. The dogs frequently
slipped and skidded sideways, endangering Seppala's
grasp on the sled. The light began to fade. As night
approached, it was only Togo's remarkable sense of
direction and Seppala's determination that brought
them across the bay and back onto the original trail.
Seppala's dog Togo was not used to pulling a sled
during a fierce storm.
Seppala almost gave up on trying to keep his dogs
moving during the night.
Seppala and his dog Togo were too cautious on the
trail and lost time.
Seppala and his dog Togo were extremely
courageous and strong-willed.
