Hear the guide
This is the real narration from Parkwolf’s Denali Highway tour. It starts on its own as you approach each stop, so you never tap or read while driving.
“Denali Viewpoint is coming up, and if the mountain is out, this is a stop I'd keep. Denali rises to twenty thousand three hundred and ten feet, the highest peak in North America.”
Real stops, real narration
Three real lines from the narration, each with the app’s tip for that stop, at three of the most-loved stops in the Denali Highway.
“Up ahead is Alaska Range Wayside, a quick stop for the mountain view across Sevenmile Lake. On a clear day, look for Gulkana and Gakona glaciers among the peaks.”
Heads up Distant glacier views depend on clear weather
“Clearwater Creek Wayside is coming up, a good place to break the drive beside two meeting creeks.”
Heads up A simple wayside rather than a developed campground
“You're approaching Maclaren Summit, where the road crests at about four thousand feet above the Maclaren River valley. In clear weather, look for Mount Hayes rising beyond the river and Maclaren Glacier in the distance.”
Heads up Cloud and wind can diminish the exposed summit view.
