Atna Peaks, Eroded stratovolcano in Wrangell Mountains, Alaska, US

Atna Peaks reaches an elevation of 13,860 feet with two distinct summits connected by a glacier-covered ridge in Wrangell-Saint Elias National Park.

The first mountaineers to reach the summit in 1965 were Alex Bittenbinder, Don Stockard, and Vin Hoeman from the Mountaineering Club of Alaska.

The mountain's name originates from the Native American term for Copper River, as these peaks mark the edge of its drainage area.

The mountain requires technical glacier climbing skills to reach the summit, with the south faces contributing to the Kennicott Glacier system.

The second summit stands 13,600 feet tall, located 0.6 miles east of the main peak, while Parka Peak rises 13,280 feet 1.6 miles further east.
