    This spot has been enjoyed by more than one cc.com poster and the most prominent peak in the background is a popular day-trip at this time of year.

    In that case, I'll guess Toketie. Exept you can't see it from the road. Doh!

    Slaphappy - I'm wondering why you have what appears as if it may be a sleeping pad on what looks like a relatively low elevation climb. Is this your clue?

    No pun, Darin. The day before we climbed the CMC route, somebody had fallen off and died. They came along with the body bag, and we carried out the abandoned camping equipment and the rope that had been left behind. Slappy's picture looks like it may have a pine in the foreground (hard to tell), and the trees in the background appear as if they may be east of the crest or in a slightly rainshadowed environment. I'm guessing Coquihalla maybe?

    How 'bout this one?

    Yes, Moran. I guess the "cadaver" gave it away?

    No, Darin, but keep thinking. I'm sure you'll figure it out. Maybe I can think of a hint that won't give it away.... Just to make it more interesting, I'll add that on the day I took this shot, there was a cadaver there ---in this view.

    It looks like Slappy and GSpotter are chasing some granite. Hmmm.....

    Looking at bivouac.com, We can see that you have kept your promise to keep it quiet.

    Are you guessing about this one? It is not Forbidden.

    No fair, Dru. You can't just post drool shouts like that and make us all go crazy!!!

    Here is another that I expect will be rather easy.

    The Grand Wall was already a "trade route" by 1973. It had been recommended to us as the "beginner's big wall," because it had 5 bolts at every belay.

    That is my brother on the Split Pillar, in 1973. Look carefully and you can see that he is wearing RR's and standing in an aider.

    Erik- You may well already have climbed it, but it is not Rattletale.

    Bingo, Off White. Washington from Ellinor. Here is another:

    It is not Mount Thompson. Hint #2: I believe Fairweather and Off White are among those who have been here. There is a trail to this point, but not to that point in the photo.

    That sounds about right. I was just kind of fantasizing that maybe I could take an easy weekend trip in the Train Glacier area.

    Philfort: Wanna go? I might be interested in a return visit this Spring. There is a lot of good skiing up there. Dru: Do you know if RR Pass (Hurley River Road) is open this winter?

    Dru - I'm having trouble going back and locating pictures that remain "unidentified" for a second look. Where in this thread is the "butt shot" posted?

    Dru - You got it: Mt. Thiassi. Maybe you haven't bothered with it because it is too easy?? The mystery picture was shot a couple hundred yards uphill from here:

    Jordop - The peak is much closer to Pemberton than Bella Coola. In addition to the class IV scramble, it has at least one eight to ten pitch rock route, 5.10 or so, on good rock.

    By your definition, "exotic." But it is almost certainly climbed several times a year and would not be termed "exotic" by a Coast Mountains officianado.

    Nope. Many many miles from Black Peak, in fact.
