Question

What type of map would you generally use to find out the elevation above sea level of Mt. McKinley in Alaska?

Answer 1

most likely physical map.

some political maps may include it.

Answer 2

Topographical map! Better yet, come on up and see for yourself. Here is a little known fact about Mt. McKinley. We live in a lovely valley (bigger than Delaware) known as Matanuska-Susitna. It has been declared a flood zone.  Mt. McKinley is  the tallest mountain in the Northern Hemisphere. It sits in the middle of our valley. So, if you build a house on the tippy top of Mt. McKinley, you would have to have flood insurance!

Answer 3

A physical map would be the best, but some political maps might also show the location and elevation of Mt. McKinley due to its status as the highest point in the USA (and in North America).
