DENALI
JEEP® BACKCOUNTRY SAFARI
FOR
$99! ($66 for children)
You
and your fellow adventurers will take the wheel of 4-WD
Jeep Wranglers® and follow your guide on a spectacular
off-road journey into Denali's backcountry. Your adventure
begins near the entrance to Denali National Park where
you meet your guide, receive your orientation and Jeep®
assignment, then head North a short distance on the
George Parks Highway toward the town of Healy.
Your
destination is the Stampede Road. Once called the Stampede
Trail, and not shown on most Alaska maps, this road
was carved out of the wilderness by early miners working
the area's Kantishna gold fields and antimony mine.
The Stampede Road gained notoriety recently in the motion
picture, Into The Wild, directed by Sean Penn.
This is the very same road that young Christopher McCandless,
subject of the book, took to enter the
wild.
The
first few miles of the Stampede Road are paved, but
beyond this point your guide will lead you along some
very primitive roadway providing you with plenty of
bumps and dips and sways. Your Jeep Wrangler ® carries
four guests, and there will be ample opportunity to
switch drivers so everyone can enjoy the thrill of maneuvering
along this wilderness road.
Interactive
two-way radios allow your guide to explain the area's
rich history, point out interesting sights along the
way, plus provide tips on the condition of the road
ahead! Throughout the trip, you'll be able to ask the
guide questions and share theexperience with your fellow
drivers.
Don't
forget your camera! On a clear day you may have the
opportunity to see Mt. McKinley. Also, keep your eyes
peeled for wildlife sightings…this is habitat for moose,
caribou and bears. You'll enjoy a hearty Alaskan snack
before wending your way back to civilization with lots
of stories to share with friends and hopefully some
great pictures as well.
