The annual spring thaw event is returning to full weekend

meaning bring ingredients or foods to share.

Alaska. Site opens Friday evening and closes Sunday at noon.

campground charges $10 per vehicle, regardless of number of
occupants. SCA site fee will be $5 per person for adults, $2.50
per child ages 6 to 15, and free for children younger than 6.
Remember to add $3 more per person who is not an SCA
member.

Directions: Head north on Glacier Highway/Egan Drive/Highway
