Here is the BARC files area. This page will be used to post miscellaneous files
pertaining to BARC. You will find a lot of helpful information here. Please
note that any confidential information, operating procedures, q-signals, etc
will not be posted here, as doing so would make that information public. Please

sent me this neat map and requested I post it. Very nice overview map of the
2008 race course.
Repeater Cards - This is
the card that I was passing out last year before the race that details the

correct format and size to download, print, and cut around the outside line for
a 3x5 "pocket size" card.

BARC code of ethics page from the new member packets. The code of ethics was
developed in 2002.

special consideration in your travels. You should also note that some of these
businesses (especially hotels) will give you a discount if you mention you're a
Beargrease volunteer.
Wind Chill Table - Very handy
guide for estimating you exposure time outside in northern Minnesota based upon
temperature and wind speed.

familiar with Musher lingo before the race.
