In hopes of providing more opportunities for winter visitation, the National Park Service will evaluate the impacts of plowing the Denali Park Road further in to the park. Currently the park road is closed to vehicular traffic beyond park headquarters after the first significant snowfall occurs (usually in October). And the Park Service is evaluating plowing 12 miles of the Park road, to the Mountain Vista Rest Area during winter season. Plowing the road beyond park headquarters would allow private and commercial vehicles to travel further into the park to provide mountain viewing and increased recreational opportunities, the Park Service says in a Press Release.
An informational meeting will be held on Wednesday, February 22, from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at the Murie Science and Learning Center in Denali National Park. Members of the public are invited to share their ideas and concerns about the proposal with park staff.
