Denali seen from the top of 7,010-foot “Syzygy Summit.”
The Muldrow Glacier is the right glacier,
and the Traleika Glacier is the left glacier.
The sun-shadow ridge between the two glaciers is
the Carpe Ridge leading to 11,140-foot Mount Tatum.
This ridge ultimately becomes Karstens Ridge.
The 20,320-foot South Peak is on the left,
and the 19,470-foot North Peak is on the right.

The Hill of Cracks on the Muldrow Glacier.
The cloud-shrouded summit in the center is the North Peak.
The sunlit feature below the North Peak is the 11,650-foot Flatiron.
You can just see the South Peak left of center.
