Sled Dog Puppies

Managers at the park kennels breed for one litter of puppies each year. This temporary camera will operate each year, starting when the pups are about three weeks old, after their eyes and ears have opened. In 2012, the camera went live on May 29, 2012 and was turned off on September 30, 2012. The camera will go live again in 2013, once the next litter of pups are born and are moving about.

You can also follow the happenings of the park sled dog kennels via their blog and by watching for periodic updates on our Facebook, YouTube and Twitter accounts. Thanks for watching.

"You Are Here"

Use this view of the visitor center campus to share your visit with family and friends back home. Stand by the info kiosk, call someone by cellphone, and wave to the white camera enclosure on the visitor center roof as they watch for you (go.nps.gov/youarehere).

In winter, you can also watch for signs of wildlife, snowshoe and ski trails, maybe even a few snow angels, sculptures and other creations.

Alaska Railroad Depot

This view from high above the Denali Visitor Center is oriented to the southeast, across the park boundary in the middle distance to the Yanert River Valley beyond. In winter, this expanse is where the sun first emerges and lingers low over the horizon. (Image refreshes about once each minute.)

Mount McKinley

Park researchers studying air quality operate a visibility webcam looking toward Mount McKinley from Wonder Lake, about 85 miles from the park entrance. The webcam archives high resolution photos for visibility documentation, and runs on solar power.
