About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 The Alaska Range is a cordillera that arcs across Alaska, dividing the coastal lowlands around Cook Inlet from the Yukon lowlands of interior Alaska. The range is about 60 miles wide near Denali and home to twenty peaks taller than 10,000 feet.
#2 When prospector Frank Densmore visited Lake Minchumina in 1889, the big mountain rising to the south so enthralled him that he couldn’t stop talking about it. For the next twenty years, virtually all travel to the region was for exploration and mountaineering.
#3 The north face of Denali is named the Wickersham Wall, a 3-mile-wide precipice that sweeps skyward for 14,000 feet from the Peters Glacier to the summit of the north peak. It was named for Wickersham, who never made the summit, but ended his quest at an elevation of about 8,000 feet on the wall.
#4 In 1912, four Kantishna miners, incensed at Cook’s deception and fueled by a barroom bet, set out for the summit. The Sourdough Expedition spent three months approaching the mountain by dogsled and ascending via the Muldrow Glacier. They reached the top and spent two and a half hours on the north summit taking in the view and planting a fourteen-foot spruce pole in a location they thought could be seen in Fairbanks, 150 miles away.
