Although we visited on an off season Sunday and most buildings were closed, we enjoyed what we did see very much. Nice staff and very clean and well maintained. Lots of good info on the park! Definitely worth the stop. The visitor center is very far (~3 hours) from the national park, however you get beautiful views of the Wrangell Mountains. The staff was very friendly and energetic, cheerfully explaining the geographical features :) My experience? Former NPS employee and property inholder during a period of local hire preference. As in other cliquish places, you'll get to know almost everyone and become something like family, inclined to help one another. For locals, one of the fascinations are to live completely off grid due to a lack of utilities, to build your own shack or mansion far away from any city or governing agency. And this in setting nearly impossible to match. 16000-foot peaks, glacial valleys, cold streams, remote lakes and few people. Unless it's Summer when visitors flock in, fly to even more remote destinations or walk among historic mining town relics. In spite of its far away setting, excellent food awaits, bag lunches are available as are guide services to make a stroll on a glacier a safe and enjoyable experience. Here even your dog is welcome, and if peaceful, may be allowed in the one bar. Weekly open mic and annual tall tail events happen as do softball games you can join. Chances are you'll see a friendly Bear, feeding on Soap Berries or a rare Moose. In a park larger than Switzerland with only two roads you can still feel like a pioneer. Definitely worth your visit. A great place to stop to gain information about the area and learn what is available for viewing. There are some walks available at the center that are interesting. It is the biggest national park in USA, 4 times of Yellowstone. But normally people just visit very small part of the park.
