September 20, 2018

There are fall colors in the tundra, the moose and caribou are scraping the velvet off their antlers, the fireweed has gone to seed, and the sandhill cranes are migrating through.  There’s even fresh snow in the high country!

Logistics and Safety

May 17, 2016

If you guessed a few days ago—you are correct! It still looks like winter in some areas in Denali right now. We’re actually skiing to scout some of our summer area routes. As always, we are ready to adapt to whatever Mother Nature decides to throw our way and have a great time outside (even if it means using our winter gear for getting around!).

If you’re coming to Denali in the early season—prepare for there to be snow!
