Mount Denison, Stratovolcano in Katmai National Park, United States.

Mount Denison reaches an elevation of 7,606 feet with a prominence of 1,558 feet at the end of a volcanic chain in Alaska Peninsula.

Harvard professor Kirtley Fletcher Mather discovered Mount Denison in 1923 and named it after Denison University, where he completed his studies.

The first successful climbers of Mount Denison in 1978 maintained strong connections to Denison University as students, alumni, or faculty members.

The mountain requires glacier climbing techniques and presents additional challenges due to its remote location within Katmai National Park.

Mount Denison competes with Mount Griggs for the title of highest peak in Katmai National Park, with varying elevation measurements from different sources.
