Route: Donoho Peak (AK)

Donoho Peak lies in the middle of the Wrangell St. Elias National Park and Preserve, the largest in America. The main visitor hub in the park is the Kennicott Valley, which Donoho commands the center of, lying between the Kennicott and Root Glaciers.

The first route record was established by a guide, and starts and finishes at the Kennicott Wilderness Guides office. It follows the Root Glacier Trail, then crosses the glacier, skirts a large lake lying at the foot of Donoho, then climbs the southern face to the western peak. The trail disappears at the base of the mountain, though the (lookers) left ridge is a recommended ascent. Depending on the time of year, the presence of snow can complicate the route and safety considerations.
