Reached by the long, unpaved McCarthy Road (or light aircraft), this historic former ghost town has one of America’s most spectacular settings.

This tiny town of old wooden cabins and restored boomtown era buildings is car-free and provides a fascinating glimpse into the past, while at its doorstep are rugged peaks and raging rivers fed by massive glaciers.

Kennicott mine

Kennicott Mine near McCarthyMcCarthy faces the Kennicott Glacier’s terminal moraine and the abandoned former copper mining town of the same name is not far away. In 1900 'Tarantula Jack' Smith and Clarence Warner discovered one of the richest copper deposits ever found here. When it was exhausted in 1938 almost everything was left behind and today the mine makes a haunting ruin to wander around.
