Mount Crosson

Mount Crosson is a 12,352-foot mountain in the Alaska Range within Denali National Park and Preserve. Standing northeast of Mount Foraker and overlooking the Kahiltna Glacier, it occupies one of the park’s great high-mountain landscapes. Mountaineer Bradford Washburn named the peak in 1949 to honor bush pilot Joe Crosson. Its position beside the Kahiltna and near larger neighboring summits places it within the network of mountains that shapes the central Alaska Range. Today it remains part of the protected wilderness of Denali National Park and Preserve.
