The Denali Highway closes each winter to vehicular
traffic, road maintenance is discontinued and the snow piles up. Our
destination was the
Maclaren River
Lodge. The lodge is located 94
miles from Cantwell and 42 miles from Paxson. We chose the
longer route from Cantwell. We found the deep snow we were looking
for as we drove further and further north from our home on the Kenai
Peninsula.
