Cell service not available. Nearest cell service is Cantwell, (30 miles away towards the Parks Highway)

Please note: Host are required to check in with the Office each morning between 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM. The main purpose for this is host safety. We do like information on how full the campground is and any other details which may help us inform visitors.

Brushkana Creek Campground is located near mile 104 of the Denali Highway. It is approximately 35 minutes from the Parks Highway north of Wasilla Alaska.

Most sites are along the rushing Brushkana Creek which holds the Arctic Grayling. Shoreside fishing is available.

Due to the location there is no cell coverage. BLM will provide a Sat phone which can be used to make daily calls to the Glennallen Field Office for Host safety check -ins and visitor information. Hosts may need to use the Brushkana Creek trail within the campground to get to a high enough point for service.

Hosts will need to provide their own trailer or RV for camping. BLM provides gas for generators and propane for cooking or heating. Host schedules are either 5 days on and two days off or ten days on and four days off. We do ask that Hosts work weekend days. BLM will pay for mileage at a rate of .14 per mile for trips to the Glennallen Field office to use laundry services and showers for you day off and mileage to Brushkana at the beginning of the season and then your return home.
