**Mount Carpe** is a 12550.-foot (3,825-metre) mountain [summit](/source/Summit) in the Alaska Range, in [Denali National Park and Preserve](/source/Denali_National_Park_and_Preserve), on a northeast buttress of [Denali](/source/Denali). The Carpe Ridge includes [Mount Tatum](/source/Mount_Tatum). Mount Carpe was named in 1943 by the U.S. Army Test Expedition after [Allen Carpé](/source/Allen_Carp%C3%A9), who was killed along with Theodore G. Koven (for whom [Mount Koven](/source/Mount_Koven_(Alaska)) is named), while on the Rockefeller Cosmic Ray Expedition in May 1932 when they fell into a crevasse on Muldrow Glacier.[2][3][4]
