The new Pretty Rocks Bridge spans the active landslide area near Mile 45 of the Denali Park Road, reconnecting the eastern and western sections of the road in Denali National Park and Preserve after it opened in August 2026. The steel truss bridge is about 475 feet long and was built as part of a $230 million project to restore access in the area.

That bridge looks like it won't be around too long. Someone stomping their foot on the ground a few times might bring down the whole thing. :oops:
