I'll guess. This looks like it could be the lower part of Mt Foraker taken from the Denali air strip on the Kahiltna glacier. A wider view of the area would make the determination easier since there aren't many clear permanent landmarks in the photo with the cropping of the photo.
After more snooping around I think it is the East Buttress with Denali rising out of frame to the left.
I think it's Crosson which is right next to Foraker/Sultana.
Nah. Crosson is much more glacially covered and appears more isolated form the Kahiltna landing strip. After some more poking around I think it could be the top of the East Buttress (viewed from the South/South East) and Denali is seen rising out of frame to the left.
That would make sense. I recognized the plane for than the peak. I knew it wasn’t Foraker, but I couldn’t place it in my memory either.
Unnammed mountains are the best part of AK
East Buttress of Denali
This is a TAT plane that has landed in the Ruth Glacier facing EastNortheast. The peak you are asking about is high point of the East Buttress of Denali. This just shows you how big that mountain really is.
