The tall peat is Denali, The Great One. The other peaks are part of the Alaska Mts.This is from Anchorage - Elderberrry Park- around 9:00am, zoomed in.
This is McKinley along with several other peaks, zoomed out a bit. The mts are over 200 miles away. The body of water is the Cook Inlet. 
This is all the mountain I was able to fit in the frame. I climbed up on some playground equiptment to get even higher to get the whole thing.
From the Talkeetna Spur Road (I was on foot!) at around 7:30 pm.
Talkeetna Beach area - around 7:45 - 8:00 pm. Note the clouds to the left of the big peak. They weren't there earlier!
Talkeetna Beach - 10:30 pm. Note, no clouds. You can see how much closer I am now to the mountain by looking back at the picture from this morning that has the peak zoomed out a bit and you can see the other three peaks. This picture is not zoomed. 
Denali Mountain after sunset - 10:45 ish pm. The dark blueish purpleish shapes at the bottom are more mountains. I have obviously zoomed in here...this may become my new background on my computer! It really doesn't get much better than this.
