Don’t work. It shows several mountains as the same mountain. Very disappointing!

### 4/5 — Denali?

*2016-04-26*

Denali, highest peak in North America, doesn't show on this app??? I live where I can see it from my porch in Alaska????!!!! WTH?

**Developer response:** Denali was listed in the application as Mt. McKinley which is its official name with the USGS. Thanks to your feedback we updated the app information to include Denali in the mountain's name.
