Petersville road

Anybody been on the Petersville road recently? What are conditions? Any good boon docking spots big enough for a 30' camper? Peters creek have a campground?
Do you need a permit to ride atv?
  • FWIW, Denali area was clouded over (very much) today...our visiting friends had their McKinley sightseeing flight (circa 12:30) cancelled.

    Talkeetna was still cool to visit (great Bloody Marys at Denali Brewing Co. !) but no joy on the flightseeing.

    You're welcome. Hopefully it's clear enough for you to get some great photos of Denali, watch for it wherever you see open areas on the north side of the road.

    The road is paved until a few miles before Kroto Creek. There are various pullouts along the gravel section, most people camp at the large parking lot at Kroto Creek (there is a pit toilet there also). Plenty of room for large RV's and no permit needed for ATV's. Most people ride the main road back through the large canyon and explore the various mining roads.
