The group is developing voluntary measures for assuring the safety of passengers, pilots, and mountaineers and for achieving desired resource conditions at Denali that were outlined in the 2006 Backcountry Management Plan. Council membership contains broad representation of interested stakeholders and has a balance of local, state, and national interests.
