    That is a very cool placement for a die chip on Mt. McKinley.

    Very eye catching die chip. Might be worthy of wider dissemination.

    Very cool. Looks like it belongs there as part of the design. Makes me wonder how many have been overlooked and are kicking around out there.

    It makes me think of the boulder on the top of the central peak of Tycho crater on the Moon.

    Tycho is the bright crater.

    Here's a blow-up of the central peak.

    And on the top of the peak is this 400 foot wide boulder.

    Now that is some awesome optics/magnification!

    If that rock was accurate to scale, it would be about 1000 feet high making Denali 21,320 above sea level.

    Mt. McKinley is a refueling station for UFO's. That's all it is. Ooops, my bad, Denali (gotta be PC)
