White Mountains National Recreation Area

White Mountains National Recreation Area is a vast protected public landscape in interior Alaska, north of Fairbanks, spanning roughly 1,000,000 acres in the White Mountains between the Elliott and Steese highways. Managed by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management as part of the National Landscape Conservation System, it adjoins the Steese National Conservation Area and includes Beaver Creek, a designated wild and scenic river. The area is significant for its large scale and remote setting, offering one of the larger public recreation landscapes in this part of Alaska, focused on broad mountain country and river corridors rather than developed facilities.
