 The mountain has been a climbing destination for more than a
century, although early attempts to summit the peak were largely
unsuccessful. An American judge named James Wickersham made
the first attempt at climbing Mount McKinley in 1903, but it would
it take another 10 years before the mountain was officially scaled
by a climbing party led by Hudson Stuck and Harry Karstens.
Today, Mount McKinley remains a popular climbing peak
summited by several hundred climbers annually .
