AI-suggested draft · review before you go
Overview Brushkana Creek Campground is located at MP 104.5 along the Denali Highway. The 22-unit camping area with fire rings and picnic tables also provides three double vaulted accessible toilets, numerous bear-proof trash receptacles and food lockers, parking for vehicles and trailers, potable water, trails, picnic area with shelter, and interpretive panels dispersed throughout the site. This site is mostly utilized during the snow free season, May through September. Winter physically closes the campground road access, and it is only reached by foot, dog sled or snowmachine. Its location along the Denali Highway has made it a destination for travelers along the gravel road connecting Paxson to Cantwell. Brushkana Creek and Tangle Lakes Campgrounds are the only developed, public campground facilities along the 135-mile road.
