About Alaska Range
The Alaska Range is a massive, rugged mountain range spanning central Alaska. Stretching over 400 miles, it features incredibly dramatic glaciated peaks, deep canyons, and wild alpine landscapes. The range is dominated by Denali (formerly Mt. McKinley), the highest peak in North America at 20,310 feet. The terrain is characterized by steep, technical mountaineering routes, expansive glaciers, and remote wilderness. Access is limited, with few roads leading into the range, making it a true wilderness destination for experienced outdoor enthusiasts.
