2007 Yukon Quest
- awarded the Dawson Award - 4 ounces of Klondike placer
gold sponsored by Joe and Wendy Fellers of Dawson City -
for being the first musher to arrive in Dawson City, and
continue to the Finish Line. Lance told the crowd he was
using some of the gold to enter another dog sled race based
in Nome next season. The sweepstakes is a winner-take-all
run to recognize the Nome gold rush. The entry fee is a
combination of cash and one ounce of gold. Lance also said
he would donate one of the ounces to fellow competitor Aaron
Burmeister for his entry fee.
Musher Frank Turner was not able to be at the banquet but
sent ahead a message to Lance Mackey which was read to the
crowd by Executive Director (Alaska), Julie Estey.
'In all of the years of the Quest that I have participated
in (and unfortunately not long enough this year), there
has never been another musher who has brought the level
of enthusiasm and dog care that you consistently have brought
into play. You are an inspiration to everyone who loves
the sport of sled-dogs,' said Turner.
2007
Yukon Quest Golden
Harness Award
Lance Mackey's lead dogs Hobo Jim and Lippy were awarded
the Golden Harness Award which included two harnesses crafted
by Taiga Mushing Supplies and steaks, cooked by the chef
of the Westmark and presented to the two dogs on stage.

2008
Yukon Quest Veterinarian’s Choice Award
Four-time Champion Lance Mackey’s emotional response
to being chosen for the 2008 Veterinarian’s Choice
Award that will stay in everyone’s mind when the 25th
Yukon Quest is but a distant memory. Lance
was his upbeat and humble self while accepting his prize
for First Place for the fourth year in a row.
When the surprise announcement came that
Lance had been chosen by the Yukon Quest’s team
of 14 veterinarians for his superb dog care on the trail,
the man they call “invincible” was visibly
shocked and shaken. “This means more to me than
winning this damn race,” said Lance. In his earlier
acceptance speech he spoke at length about his dog team
and how, “for whatever reason they go out of their
way to please me.”
2008 Yukon Quest
Golden Harness Award
Lance Mackey's lead dogs Handsome and Rev were given raw
steak by the High Country Inn for winning the Golden Harness
Award.
Mackey’s fourth win
this year is a Yukon Quest record. He confirmed plans
to run the Yukon Quest next year with the goal of achieving
five championships in a row.
2008 Iditarod
- The PenAir Spirit of Alaska Award presented
to the first musher to reach McGrath. Lance received a
spirit mask created each year by Bristol Bay artist, Orville
Lind for the award and a $500 credit on PenAir.
2008 Iditarod - Millenium
Hotel first to the Yukon Award, which includes
a seven-course meal prepared by the hotel’s head
chef along with an “after dinner mint” of
$5,000. Lance inhaled the meal in Ruby, where it was awarded.
He’ll get a second chance to enjoy it at a slower
pace. The hotel serves the same meal to the winner at
a later date.
