Summary

Denali National Park’s 92-mile road is finally open again after five years blocked by the massive Pretty Rocks landslide—thanks to a $230 million steel truss bridge built amid Alaska’s brutal terrain, thawing permafrost, and climate-driven instability. Engineers battled steep slopes, shifting earth, and shrinking construction windows to restore access to key spots like Wonder Lake and the Eielson Visitor Center, with cyclists already crossing and buses set to follow next year—a triumph of persistence against nature’s fury.
