The superintendent has determined that there is not adequate snow cover for the use of snowmobiles for traditional activities in the 1980 additions to Denali National Park and Preserve on both sides of the Alaska Range.

All park lands that were open for snowmobile use are now closed for the season.

Riders are reminded that all lands within the former Mount McKinley National Park are permanently closed to all snowmobile use by federal regulation.

Check out maps and GPS coordinates for the park and preserve boundary.
