Mount McKinley from Reflection Pond in early autumn

Alaska. Wide-angle early morning view of snow-covered Mount McKinley in Denali National Park with Reflection Pond in the foreground in August. The sky is a deep blue with a thin layer of high white clounds moving in from the east, vegetation around the pond has already turned a deep golden brown with the early arrival of autumn, and there are strong reflections of the mountain in the smooth surface of the pond. Most references list the mountain (also called Denali—Koyukon Athabaskan for "The High One") as 20,320 feet in elevation, the tallest peak in North America, with a greater real vertical rise (18,000 feet) than Mount Everest.
