Pease Peak

Nature
Pease Peak is a 7,750-foot mountain in the Alaska Range within Denali National Park and Preserve, on the southern edge of the Don Sheldon Amphitheater southeast of Denali. With the Tokositna Glacier below its west side and the Ruth Glacier to the east, it stands close to Mount Dickey, and together they frame Pittock Pass. The peak rises about 1,500 feet above the Tokositna Glacier and sits near The Rooster Comb in a heavily glaciated landscape. Though not a major climbing objective, it is often seen because it lies near an air taxi landing area and the Sheldon Chalet. Its published name dates to the late 1940s.
