Check with the park's Special Use Coordinator for more information on closures, sensitive resources, and other safety tips. Do I need a commercial permit to film?All commercial filming that occurs within a unit of the National Park System requires a permit. "Commercial filming" means the film, electronic, magnetic, digital, or other recording of a moving image by a person, business, or other entity for a market audience with the intent of generating income. Individual parks may require a permit for non-commercial filming if a permit is necessary to manage the activity to protect park resources and values, minimize conflict between user groups, or to ensure public safety. More details about filming and permits in parks are available on the NPS website: Filming & Still Photography Permits (nps.gov) How do I apply for a Commercial Still Photography permit?Submit a completed application along with a $200 application fee to Wrangell-St. Elias as far in advance of your planned date as possible. In addition, you should request a meeting with park staff if your proposed activity is unusual or complex. Early consultation with park staff will help them process the submitted application in a timely manner. Where do I send my application for a Commercial Still Photography permit? Email it to the Special Park Use Program Coordinator at wrst_permits@nps.gov Questions about other special use permits?
