The Superintendent of Denali National Park and Preserve has determined that there is adequate snow cover for the use of snowmobiles for traditional activities in all areas of the 1980 park additions except the portion from the West Fork of the Chulitna River to the Southwest Preserve.

Riders are reminded that all lands within the former Mount McKinley National Park on both the north and the south sides of the Alaska Range are closed to all snowmobile use by federal regulation. Overall, riding conditions are variable. The rider is encouraged to stay on established travel corridors and avoid locations where damage to vegetation or soils could occur, or where vegetation is taller than the protective snow cover.

Visit the park's snowmobile page for further updates.
