Overview
Three small lodges are operated on park lands in Dry Bay under concession contracts. These lodges have a small and highly seasonal client base. Two lodge operators are currently historical operators, 36CFR, Sec. 13.305, as defined by ANILCA section 1307, which entitles them to non-competitively renew their concession contracts for their Lodging Services. The third Lodge operation has been competitively renewed.

Prospectus for Alsek River Lodge Concession
The National Park Service issued a prospectus for this service on March 8, 2005, under which one concession contract was awarded to Gary Gray for the operation of Alsek River Lodge; services include lodging, food & beverage, and associated incidental services within Glacier Bay National Preserve.

The following are copies of the concession contracts for the three lodges in Dry Bay:
