Denali is the tallest peak on the continent of North America at 20,320 feet tall. It is the considered the coldest mountain in the world, and summiters only have about a 51% chance of success. That's WAY worse odds than Everest. And it has a higher rise than Everest - on Everest you start at 17,000 feet and go up to 26k. Denali base is at only 2000 feet, giving it a rise (climbing distance) of 18,000 feet!
