Dawson City Award: 4 oz. of Klondike placer gold (donated by Wendy & Joe Fellers, of Dawson City) was presented to the first musher to arrive in Dawson City, who went on to become an official finisher. The Dawson Award commemorates "getting to the Klondike and completing the journey home".

Sportsmanship Award: $500.00 and an Apocalypse Design, beaver-fur lined, musher's-style hat (donated by Williams Alaska Petroleum). Presented to the musher who demonstrates outstanding sportsmanship along the trail, as selected by their fellow mushers.

Vet's Choice Award: A burl bowl etched with a musher and dog "face-to-face". Chosen by the Trail Veterinarian Team and presented to the musher who best demonstrates outstanding dog care during the entire race.
