Part history, part field guide, and part recreation tool, this is an up-to-date and comprehensive guidebook for Denali - one of the most beloved US national parks in Alaska. It includes checklists for wildlife watching and details on winter fun. Denali National Park: The Complete Visitors Guide to the Mountain, Wildlife, and Year-Round Outdoor Activities is the most comprehensive guide to one of North America's most wild and varied places. This authoritative reference to Denali National Park and adjacent lands details all the information a traveller needs for a great Alaska experience, whether by bus, car, train, bike, boat, or foot. With this guide in hand you can explore the park's visitor facilities, raft whitewater rapids, pick berries, climb the continent's highest mountain, backpack through forest and tundra, watch grizzlies dig for ground squirrels, share a ridgetop with Dall sheep, attend sled-dog demonstrations, go on ranger-guided hikes, camp in solitude within glacially carved valleys, and much more. From the natural history of the region to the human history of the mountain and the park, Alaskan author Bill Sherwonit captures the mystique of this fascinating place.
Even casual travellers to Denali National Park will appreciate his in-depth information about the park's popular entrance area and travelling the Park Road, and the helpful checklists for mammals, birds, and plants.

BILL SHERWONIT continues to spend part of every year exploring the Denali region-as he has done for nearly three decades! He is a prolific writer and photographer and has written several books about Alaska, including To the Top of Denali: Climbing Adventures on North America's Highest Peak and Denali: A Literary Anthology. (He summited the peak himself in 1987.) Sherwonit also teaches wilderness writing at the University of Alaska-Anchorage.
