Hmmm... in 2009 we were in Denali 10 nights and saw 'The Mountain' 7 out of 10 days. We thought it was a beautiful summer. Our only problem areas with fires were going up and one was at the highway around Liard. There was a lot of smoke in Fairbanks. One good thing that dry year - no mosquito problems. :)
My previous statement wasn't very clear. We didn't get to see Mr McKinley due to weather not smoke. There was no smoke in Denali at that time IIRC. We did have smoke in many other places, Valdez or Seward (not sure which now), Fairbanks, and on the Haul Road.
We enjoyed the trip in spite of the smoke in many areas.
