Conrad Anker, Jon Krakauer, Melissa Arnot Reid, and other prominent climbers and guides share their thoughts on the president’s decision to rename North America’s highest mountain
The Alaska House voted to urge President Trump to maintain the name Denali for North America's tallest peak, opposing his executive order to revert the name to Mount McKinley. The resolution highlights the cultural significance of Denali for the Koyukon Athabascan people.
The tallest peak in North America has been named Denali since 2015 when its name was officially changed under former President Barack Obama.
As part of a torrent of decisions he issued hours after taking office, President Donald Trump declared that the name of America’s tallest mountain be changed from Denali to Mount McKinley, and that the Gulf of Mexico be renamed “The Gulf of America.”
