Trump wants to change name of North America's tallest peak in Alaska
On Monday, US President Donald Trump vowed to rename North America's tallest peak, Denali in Alaska, to Mount McKinley.
In 2015, the then-president Barack Obama changed the name of the mountain peak with a summit elevation of 6,190 meters to Denali to reflect the traditions of Alaska Natives and acknowledge the preference of many Alaska residents.
Trump, who took office for a second time Monday, said he planned to "restore the name of a great president, William McKinley, to Mount McKinley, where it should be and where it belongs. President McKinley made our country very rich through tariffs and through talent."
Denali is an Athabascan word meaning "the high one" or "the great one." The peak was named "Mount McKinley" in 1896 after President William McKinley, who had never been to Alaska.
