<p>On April 11, 1906, the Nome Nugget reported that Nome residents B.T. Dyer and Crosby Keen had arrived from Seattle in a record breaking 35 days. They had gone by ship to Valdez and then traveled on to Fairbanks. The men said that if they hadn't run into heavy snow on the trails and storms on the Yukon River, they could have cut four or five days off the trip. The Nugget also reported that "Mr. Dyer could not add to the news of the outside which has already been published in the local paper."
This April 10, 1906 photo, taken by Frank Nowell, shows B.T. Dyer and Crosby Keen and their dogsled a few days after they reached Nome from Seattle.</p>
