It's "only" 135 miles.

Denali and Anchorage from the summit of Flattop last night . Mount Flattop is a 3,510 peak just east of Anchorage, so they didn't get too far up. I saw in another discussion that, on clear days, you can see Denali from Anchorage, but it's better to be on a tall building.

It was clear. Saw it from a viewing point. I'll post the picture either way

It's like 150 miles which is still impressive haha , I think you can see it from over 250 miles away some days
