Social distancing was encouraged and practiced. Most people were not wearing masks unless they were assisting or providing services.

Be sure to register in-line regarding Covid-19 testing options. They were not accepting printouts. A path was roped off near the arrival gate to make certain everyone was screened. I had not received my test results so I
was required to self-isolate until my negative proof was received. I had it the next morning and was able to email the results.

Traffic was very light between Anchorage and Seward. Only delays
were because of road work.

Denali National Park is open but no tour busses are operating within the park for touring or transport to the outer campgrounds. Private vehicles are allowed to travel most of the roads but a special pass is required.

Can report that the ER in Seward
is top/notch and uncrowded. Had a
knee injury my last day and was
treated and released.
Thanks for the update. Note that buses in Denali started on July 1. So personal vehicles are no longer allowed past Mile 15 with some exceptions.
