Mount Bradley

Nature
Mount Bradley is a summit in Alaska's Denali National Park and Preserve, on the west side of Ruth Gorge in the Alaska Range. Rising a little over 9,100 feet, it is less notable for overall height than for its striking north face, which forms nearly 5,000 feet of vertical sheer granite. Its dramatic setting is shaped by nearby peaks including Mount Dickey, Mount Wake, and London Tower across The Great Gorge. Explorer Dr. Frederick Cook named the mountain for John R. Bradley, a Florida casino owner who supported his work financially. The peak lies in a subarctic climate with severe winters, cool summers, and a typical viewing and climbing season in May and June.
