Today the UA Museum of
the North in Fairbanks opens its new exhibit, “Denali Legacy: 100 Years on the
Mountain.” The exhibit, which runs through April 2014 and
was created in partnership with the National Park Service, explores the journey of
the first expedition to summit the mountain through the original journals of
those climbers.
•
See artifacts from the 1913 expedition: the camp stove, a Eucharist
set, and the climbers’ diaries.
•
Learn how equipment from the last century compares to today’s
technology.
•
Hear saws and axes cutting into ice, feet crunching on snow, wind, and
other sounds of Denali.
•
Examine a scale model of the mountain and explore the 100-year history
of routes and climbers.
