McCarthy Road End Dispersed — Wrangell-St. Elias NP

Description

Near the end of McCarthy Road, where Wrangell-St. Elias National Park's glacier-carved river valleys converge and the Kennecott River runs just to the south, this level roadside pullout offers open views and a quiet overnight before the paid campgrounds begin a short distance east. The spot has room for two vans or one medium RV and sits close enough to McCarthy and the West Kennecott Glacier Trailhead to serve as a practical base for exploring the area.
