President Donald Trump has issued a flurry of executive orders — including one to change the official name of North America's tallest mountain.

The Obama-era change followed decades of requests from Native Alaskan leaders for the mountain’s native name ‘Denali’, a Koyukon Athabaskan word meaning "the tall one," "the high one" or "the great one" to be restored.

Stark County GOP officials enthusiastically back President Donald Trump changing the name of North America's tallest mountain back to Mount McKinley.

In 2015, the name of the peak was changed during the Obama administration to reflect the traditions of Alaska Natives and preference of many Alaskans.

Among the roughly 200 executive orders President Donald Trump is expected to sign during his first day in office is a declaration to restore the name of the 25th president, William McKinley, to an Alaska mountain.

Trump said he planned to “restore the name of a great president, William McKinley, to Mount McKinley, where it should be and where it belongs."

The Alaskan mountain, now known as Mount Denali, will revert back to its previous name Mount McKinley, which was changed by former President Barack Obama. Obama changed the name to Denali in 2015 to reflect the traditions of Alaska Natives as well as the preference of many Alaska residents.

The move is likely to face some pushback in Alaska, where the Alaska Native name has long been favored for the continent’s tallest mountain.

The president wants to honor a predecessor, William McKinley, by returning his name to North America’s highest peak. The state’s senators prefer the Native name.

The tallest peak in North America has been named Denali since 2015 when its name was officially changed under former President Barack Obama.
