Mount Denali. Standing at 20310 feet or 6190m, mount Denali is the highest point in North America. Compared to some of the other great mountains on Earth, Denali doesn’t seem particularly impressive, at least at first glance. But, due to a combination of remoteness, weather, latitude, and vertical distance needed to be travelled, Denali is a legendary challenge. For these reasons, the success rate of summit hopefuls is less than that of even the world’s highest mountain, Mount Everest. And certainly, what would a legendary mountain be without a horrifying incident? This is the 1967 Mount Denali Disaster.
