Divide Mountain is a 5,195 ft (1,580 m) summit located in Denali National Park and Preserve, in the Alaska Range, in the U.S. state of Alaska. It is a landmark in the Toklat River valley visible to tourists from the park road. Divide Mountain is situated 2 mi (3 km) southwest of Polychrome Pass, 3.44 mi (6 km) southwest of Polychrome Mountain, and 11 mi (18 km) north-northeast of Scott Peak. Although modest in elevation, relief is significant since the peak rises over 2,000 ft (610 m) from the surrounding valley floor. This mountain's local descriptive name was first shown on a 1916 U.S. Geological Survey map.
