Pease Peak is a {{convert|7750|ft|-1|abbr=on}} mountain summit located in the Alaska Range, in Denali National Park and Preserve, in the U.S. state of Alaska. It is situated 1,500 feet above the Tokositna Glacier to its west, and Ruth Glacier to the east, along the southern margin of the Don Sheldon Amphitheater, {{convert|11|mi|km|0|abbr=on}} southeast of Denali, {{convert|2.84|mi|km|0|abbr=on}} southeast of The Rooster Comb, and {{convert|0.45|mi|km|0|abbr=on}} west of Mount Dickey, which is the nearest higher peak. Dickey forms the eastern buttress of Pittock Pass, whereas Pease forms the western buttress. Although overlooked as a climbing destination, the peak is often seen due to its proximity to the air taxi landing area and the Sheldon Chalet immediately north of the peak. Pease Peak, and its variant name Mount Pease, is based on a mountain climber's name that was published in the late 1940s.{{cite gnis|id=1407853|name=Pease Peak|accessdate=2019-06-01}}Dictionary of Alaska Place Names, Donald J.
