McCarthy Visitor Information Station reopens
NPS responds to community request to provide information service
Ranger Diane Thorn (above) welcomes visitors to the McCarthy area. At the request of McCarthy community members, the “kiosk” will be staffed 8 hours a day, 7 days a week this summer.
NPS maintenance crews cleared brush in front of the kiosk area (below) so that motorists can see the facility from the McCarthy Road. Additional brushing and better signs are also planned.
A free shuttle service from the kiosk area (as well as other parking lots along the McCarthy Road) to the footbridge will operate during the month of July.
