The base of Mount McKinley is roughly a 2,000-foot plateau, giving it an actual rise of .

The mountain is also characterized by extremely cold weather. A thermometer left exposed at an elevation of on Mount McKinley over 19 years recorded a temperature of at some point during its exposure Fact: date=January 2008. There is also a higher risk of altitude illness for climbers than its altitude would otherwise suggest, due to its high latitude. At the equator, a mountain as high as Mount McKinley would have 47% as much oxygen available on its summit as there is at sea level, but because of its latitude, the pressure on the summit of McKinley is even lower (42%).

Layout of the mountain

Mount McKinley has two significant summits: the South Summit is the higher one, while the North Summit has an elevation of and a prominence of approximately . The North Summit is sometimes counted as a separate peak (see e.g., the List of United States fourteeners) and sometimes not; it is rarely climbed, except by those doing routes on the north side of the massif.

Five large glaciers flow off the slopes of the mountain. The Peters Glacier lies on the northwest side of the massif, while the Muldrow Glacier falls from its northeast slopes. Just to the east of the Muldrow, and abutting the eastern side of the massif, is the Traleika Glacier. The Ruth Glacier lies to the southeast of the mountain, and the Kahiltna Glacier leads up to the southwest side of the mountain.

Exploration and naming

The local Athabaskan name for the mountain, the one used by the Native Americans with access to the flanks of the mountain, living in the Yukon, Tanana and Kuskokwim basins, is Dinale or Denali (“the Great One”). To the South the Dena'inas in the Susitna river valley used the name Dghelay Ka'a (simplified to Doleika), meaning “the big mountain”, while the Aleuts called it Traleika.Fred Beckey Mount McKinley: Icy Crown of North America (Mountaineers Books 1993, paper 1999, ISBN 0-89886-646-4)
