Kichatna Spire, Mountain summit in Denali National Park and Preserve, Alaska.
The 8,985-foot Kichatna Spire features vertical rock walls and stands as the highest point within the Kichatna Mountains of the Alaska Range.
The first successful climb of Kichatna Spire occurred on September 23, 1966, led by Richard Millikan's team through a route called Secret Passage.
The peak's name reflects the geographical nomenclature of the region and represents a significant climbing destination within the Alaska mountaineering community.
Climbers accessing Kichatna Spire require aircraft transportation to reach the remote location and must prepare for rapid weather changes at high altitudes.
The mountain generates multiple glaciers, including the Cul-de-sac, Shelf, and Shadows Glaciers, while maintaining a prominence of 6,185 feet.
