context_page_description: Joshua Green Peak is a 7,135-foot mountain summit located at the western edge of the Saint Elias Mountains, in the U.S. state of Alaska. The peak is situated in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park and Preserve at the head of Dan Creek, 18 mi east-southeast of McCarthy, and 4 mi east-northeast of Williams Peak. The peak is named after Joshua Green, a Seattle businessman who through his financial backing of mining ventures was instrumental in mineral development in the Dan Creek area. The peak's name was officially adopted in 1975 by the U.S. Board on Geographic Names. Precipitation runoff from the mountain drains into Dan Creek which is a tributary of the Nizina River, which in turn is part of the Copper River drainage basin.
