If you are "fast approaching" it may be to late to get into a NP campground. We stayed at Cantwell this time and found it to be very nice. We chose it because we wanted to explore more of the Denali Hwy with just our 4x4 truck. I agree that staying in the park gives you a better "feel". Do it if you can. lizzie
In addition to our 5 nights at Teklanika on a whim we boondocked nearby the previous night and we got 5 nights in Riley Creek in Denali just by driving in.
It's always worth trying and staying in Denali is so very nice.
