I have a 33 foot TT -- 65 feet overall. I camped at TEK. No problem. However, I do NOT suggest TEK. Do not get me wrong, TEK is a good campground. But you miss the daily (?) ride and the wildlife in the green bus ride from the welcome center to the TEK. One day when I got on the bus they were all talking about the Lynx they had seen about a mile from the TEK bus stop. I miss seeing this lynx.
I'm not sure what you mean. There is not only one Lynx in the park! We saw Lynx while visiting TEK. Animals come and go all day long. They don't appear on schedule. :) We saw a lot more animals when staying at TEK than in the front part of the park.
To answer about where is the town of Denali as someone mentioned...I'm not sure. There is a Denali Highway (Hwy 8) between Cantwell and Paxon and only small portions at both ends are paved. The rest is rough gravel. I wouldn't recommend taking a big RV on it. We drove it in the Jeep.
