McKinley Expedition Finds No Cook Ascent Evidence
Fairbanks expedition reaches Mount McKinley summit in April but finds no trace of Dr. Frederick A. Cook's claimed ascent. Four climbers Thomas Lloyd Daniel Patterson W R Taylor and Charles McGonzighe trek from base camp along a steep ice face to the twin snow covered peaks. They vow to forfeit $5000 if none reach the summit and aim to verify Cook’s 1906 claim, noting Mount McKinley rises about 20,484 feet in the Alaska range with two equal peaks.
