The George Parks Highway Scenic Byway
Broad Pass, AK
Although unforested Broad Pass is one of the lowest-elevated passes along the North American mountain system, expansive views provide travelers a top-of-the world feeling. Just south of Cantwell, Broad Pass is one of the most beautiful areas on the Parks Highway, with its broad alpine valleys and mountain peaks on either side. Waterfowl use Broad Pass as a stopover and as breeding and brooding grounds during the summer. Caribou are temporary residents during migration season.
