Mt. McKinley is once again Denali

Wasn't his idea. Requested by a republican governor and a republican lesgislator....and practically all Alaskan citizens. Since the park was renamed Denali no one has called the mountain McKinley anyway...but isn't Boehner from Ohio???

Who cares, a rose by any other name smells as sweet or something like that.

Well Capt. Cook never set foot on land there but **** near everything around Anchorage is named after him or the expression he used in exasperation while sailing along the coast line - Turnagain.

I understand most folks around there have been calling it that for years.
