Mount Huntington, Mountain summit in Denali National Park, Alaska, US
Mount Huntington reaches 12,241 feet in elevation with steep rock and ice walls rising from the Tokositna Glacier in the central Alaska Range.
French mountaineer Lionel Terray led the first successful ascent of Mount Huntington in May 1964 through what became known as the French Ridge.
The mountain's distinct triangular shape and sharp lines influenced the design of the Paramount Pictures logo, marking its impact beyond mountaineering circles.
Climbers access Mount Huntington via the West Fork of Ruth Glacier or Tokositna Glacier, with optimal climbing conditions occurring from late spring to early summer.
The West Face Couloir route presents a technical climb of 4,000 vertical feet, including a 1,200-foot ice corridor requiring advanced mountaineering skills.
