The Alaska state government apparently wanted the name change a long time ago.

Denali works well for me. Now if we could only scrape the 0bama name off of everything...

Bingo. My understanding is that all the locals call it Denali, and not just the native Americans.

"Personally i think that the Alaska State Government should have the final say, screw fed gov forcing naming on local landmarks."Here's your history lesson for the day: Mt. McKinley was named well before Alaska petitioned to become a state.
Had they not liked the name then, nobody would have forced them to become a state.
In fact, at the time of statehood, nobody in Alaska gave a rat's ass about the name of the mountain.

Yes, but after 100 years it is already known as McKinley.

I agree. Let Alaskans decide and be done with it.
