    The number of glaciers left in Yellowstone National Park.

    I don't know why the alphabet came to mind, but it may be days (or at least hours) before I can think of anything else (without googling it as I did the glacier answer).

    The alphabet answer has crowded any other association with "26" that I might have in my head.

    Here is another great old doo-wop song. "This I Swear" released in May 1959 was The Skyliners' second hit record, reaching #26 on Billboard Hot 100.

  • Alphabet is what I thought of. It is the most prominent 26. The number itself makes me think of the element iron, as well as the age I will turn this year.
