Mount Carpe, Mountain summit in Denali National Park, Alaska, United States.

Mount Carpe rises to an elevation of 12,550 feet on the northeast buttress of Denali, featuring a prominence of 1,800 feet above surrounding terrain.

The United States Army Test Expedition named Mount Carpe in 1943 to honor Allen Carpé, who died during the Rockefeller Cosmic Ray Expedition in 1932.

Mount Carpe stands as a memorial to scientific exploration, commemorating researchers who conducted studies on the Muldrow Glacier in extreme conditions.

Mountaineers planning ascents of Mount Carpe need to refer to the USGS Mount McKinley A-2 topographic map and obtain permits from Denali National Park.

The summit remains unclaimed by climbers, making it one of the few unclimbed peaks within the northeastern section of Denali National Park.
