In January, 2015, Dupre completed a solo climb of Mt. McKinley after three previous attempts. Sixteen people had previously reached McKinley's summit in winter, although six died on descent and none made the climb during January.
In 2004, Dupre was honoured with the Rolex Award for Enterprise for bringing attention to the impacts of climate change on the Arctic through his expeditions, among other Northern issues.
