Thomas Eaves ’11

In May 2019, and his climbing partner Zach Lovell ascended (and named) the previously-unclimbed Mt. Katherine in the Central Alaska Range. Thomas and Zach set out in mid-May to climb the Dall Glacier in Denali National Park, which begins at Mt. Russell and ultimately flows into the Yentna River at its terminus. After landing on the glacier on May 16, Thomas and Zach headed for an unnamed and likely unclimbed peak east of the glacier. Over the next few days, the two climbers made their ascent, reaching the peak overnight to a full moon. As Zach writes in his article about the climb for the American Alpine Journal: “As we neared the end of the ridge, a full moon emerged, casting a surreal glow upon us and the mountain’s final tower. Our summit views were some of the most unique I’ve experienced in the range, with the Yentna River, Mt. Russell, Mt. Foraker and Denali all joining us in a moonlit dance party.” Thomas dubbed the peak Mt. Katherine for his wife — and to hopefully gain endless favor with her for permission to go on future expeditions.
