yes
A musher cooks some snow so they have water, they eat as well as their dogs too. And if it is a overnight checkpoint then they have a camp tent and a special sleeping bag that rises up to the nose and mouth (i dont remember the name) hope this helps.

It is a law that says that you have to do a good deed, I think.
check in
yes. example: every musher in the iditarod race can spend 24 hours only once at a checkpoint. so it would be a good idea when they are tired to stop at a checkpoint for 24 hours since they only get to do it once. they all have limited time at checkpoint. if u r confused, go 2 the iditarod website.
Checkpoint is a compound word created by combining "check" and "point".
Gut the animal and then report it to a race official at the next checkpoint.
Check for large healthy cell, proper DNA replication, and nuclear cytoplasmic division.
Sentries are positioned at each end of the checkpoint and are covered by mounted or dismounted automatic weapons positions. They are responsible for controlling the traffic flow and providing security at the checkpoint.
