Ice breaks force Iditarod egg shipment disaster
White Pass sleighs hauling 300 cases of eggs broke through the ice near Tahkini river below Whitehorse. Most damaged eggs were salvaged or repacked after a crew dubbed egg wipers worked to save the consignment. Damaged eggs were discarded into the river as shipments to Fairbanks from Seattle could not be localised. American pens hold about half Britain's market for such conveniences.
