Denali is actually the true name for Mount McKinley according to the native Alaskan's - it means "great one" or something very close to that.* I spent a summer up there and what a beautiful country!!* Great salmon fishing on the coast, too.

I think the name comes from that artist that painted all them "droopy" CLOCKS???

First name was maybe "Salvidore"?

You may be thinking of Dall sheep, 29.* Mt. Denali is in Alaska, in Denali National Park which is an awesome place.* Everything is soooooo big!

Denali, the "High One," is the name Athabascan native people gave the massive peak that crowns the 600-mile-long Alaska Range. Denali is also the name of an immense national park and preserve created from the former Mount McKinley National Park.
