FILE - Patty Richards from Vermont takes off with her team of sled dogs at the start of the Can-Am 100 Saturday, March 5, 2022 in Fort Kent, Maine. The organizers of the longest sled dog race in the eastern United States said Monday, Feb. 26, 2024, they are canceling the event due to a lack of snow on the ground. The Can-Am Crown International Sled Dog Races have taken place in northern Maine for more than three decades, and they include a 250-mile event that is the marquee sled dog race in New England. But this year, snow has been well below average in Maine, and it's not safe to run the races, organizers said.(Emily Jerkins/The Bangor Daily News via AP, File)/The Bangor Daily News via AP, File)
