McKinley officially re-named Denali (or is that re-re-named Denali? or un-re-named Denali?).

I think most mountaineers already called Denali, but it is nice to see it made official.

I don't think the big mountain cares either way.

Pandering to the Athabascan voters.

Lincoln now takes over as the president with the highest mountain, and Adams in now 2nd.

Campbell Hill at 1550' is the highest point in Ohio. Maybe that hill can be renamed Mt. McKinley. That should keep the Ohio delegation happy.
What a demotion for President McKinley, however...
