Denali/Alaska photo tour

I wonder if anyone knew a photo tour in Denali National Park in Alaska. When is the best time to go there?

Depends on what you want to shoot...

In the winter time it is all snow covered... In the summer time it is all green with snow capped peaks and visible glaciers in the valleys...

Denali Park is as big as some states so you might consider taking the train that goes through the middle and plan your photos around that.. Stay at one of the lodges and there will be photo opportunities everywhere...

Year round they offer helicopter tours and dog-sled adventures...

Since there are no cities or towns anywhere near or around the Park, if you can't get great photos there, you can't get them anywhere..

Do an Almanac check to be sure you don't get there during the rainy months....
