Iditarod 2021

Aaron Burmeister finished second in the 2021 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race, reaching the finish line in Deshka Landing just 3 hours after Dallas Seavey, the now 5-time Iditarod Champion.

The latest to finish Iditarod 2021 is Matthew Failor in 21st place.

Twenty-one mushers have crossed the finish line in Deshka, leaving 15 teams still out on the historic Iditarod Gold Trail Loop.

Top 15 mushers have also all arrived into Deshka Landing for their race finish.

Without the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race coming to town, the City of Nome and many commercial establishments expect to take a financial loss this year.

Mille Porsild has placed 5th in this year’s Iditarod Race. She moves up from her 17th place finish in 2020 to a Top 5 finish in 2021. Is the former Rookie of the Year gearing up for a future Iditarod win? Listen below for a discussion on Porsild’s mushing career, current leaderboard standings and more:…

Nome musher Aaron Burmeister secures his best Iditarod finish yet.

Dallas Seavey is the first place finisher for Iditarod 49. He is the second-ever musher to achieve five Iditarod wins, which ties him with Rick Swenson as winningest Iditarod musher in race history.

Mushing’s connection to Western Alaska is both historic and iconic, but interest in it has varied over the years. Has mushing seen its heyday here in Nome?

Three mushers are now back into Skwentna, the last checkpoint of the 2021 Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race and what is being called this year’s “White Mountain”. Dallas Seavey has a lead of one hour and one minute and that could be all he needs to seal a winning finish. That finish will likely happen in the early morning hours of Monday.
