Is Mt. McKinley inside Denali National Park?

I thought Denali Meant "Big Mountain". My boss went to Alaska 10 years ago and he says it is not any where near Denali.

Yes. Went 3 summers ago. Spent 3 days there. Loved every minute of it. Went on an early morning wildlife tour. Saw 7 grizzly bears, mountain sheep, elk... Did some group hiking. Had a lot of rain but some good weather also. I'd go again in a heartbeat! Really enjoyed Alaska. Did the dome train from Anchorage to Denali and then to Fairbanks. Recommend that as well.

McKinley is in Denali. Actually, they call McKinley Denali now.

Yes it is. Denali’s dynamic glaciated landscape supports a diversity of wildlife with grizzly bears, caribou, wolves, Dall sheep and moose. Summer slopes are graced with birds and wildflowers. Visitors enjoy sightseeing, backpacking, mountaineering, and research opportunities. Whether climbing or admiring, the crowning jewel of North America’s highest peak is the awe inspiring 20,320 foot Mount McKinley.
