Mount McKinley or Mt. Denali " The big one" as the natives call it. The highest peak in North America, 6,134 meters or 20,320 feet. Why is this image rare? Any Alaskan will tell you to see the mountain with fresh snow and without a fog or cloud cover is almost like winning the lottery. I was very lucky, being a tourist I was there at the right time at the right spot. As the old native at Talkeetna the gas station told me, the big one is like a lady she don't like to be exposed naked without any cloud cover. So here she is uncovered.
