    Tips

    January 10, 2023

    McHugh Peak – Q'isqa Dghelaya in the Dena'ina tongue – is a glorious mountain that can be hiked from the McHugh Creek Recreation Area. It's a strenuous hike and to gain the very apex of the mountain, you'll need to scramble up the summit rocks. The views in all directions are excellent, particularly towards the immense pyramids of the Suicide Peaks.
