What to Do About Number Two? Insights from Decades of Human Waste Research and Management on Denali
- Type: Article
Backcountry waste management poses unique challenges on glaciers at over 14,000 feet. Mountaineering on Denali has a long history, including decades of human waste buried on the most popular climbing route--Kahiltna Glacier. As much as 88 metric tons of human waste is estimated to have been generated by mountaineers on the West Buttress climbing route since it was first climbed in 1951. What happens to this waste and what are the impacts? Alaska Park Science, 2025

Pelagia Melgenak
- Type: Person
To learn the story of Pelagia (also spelled Palakia) Melgenak is to learn the sanctity of shared traditions, the loving bonds of kinship and the reverence of a spiritual connection to the land around you. Born in the late 1870s in the remote village of Savonoski in Alaska, Pelagia grew up learning about hunting, gathering, navigating and guiding in the area. That all changed in 1912 with the hot ash falling like a blanket covering the region with the eruption of Novarupta.
