Blake Posted February 13, 2005 Posted February 13, 2005 I can't figure out the snowy one that seems to be leaning over to the left. For reference, Formidable and Rainier visible as well. Quote
Blake Posted February 13, 2005 Author Posted February 13, 2005 Looks like you guys are correct, thanks. http://www.summitpost.org/mountains/phot...r_by____limit__ Quote
Alpinfox Posted February 13, 2005 Posted February 13, 2005 (edited) If you are talking about "F", I think that is Sloan or White Chuck, but I'm really bad at these things. edit: I guess I'm a little late. Was this picture taken from Johannesburg? Eldorado? Edited February 13, 2005 by Alpinfox Quote

Blake Posted February 14, 2005 Author Posted February 14, 2005 Here's a new one Name any and all, there are lots to choose from. It might help to look at the full-size picture: http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/plab/showphoto.php?photo=9338&size=big&sort=1&cat=500 Quote
klenke Posted February 14, 2005 Posted February 14, 2005 Ooo ooo ooo, can I play? Please? Please can I?... Photo looking NW from Gray Peak in the Lake Chelan-Sawtooth Wilderness. Mt. Goode is the pointy thing at left-center. Logan is right of Goode but just left of center. Black Peak is just right of center. Mt. Gibbs (aka Bugger Mountain) is the dark horn at right-center. And Reynolds Peak is the big thing at far right. In the foreground is Pt. 7960+ and Tuckaway Lake. Quote

You forgot a few on the left side, including one that blends in with Buckner. Extra Credit: What is the relative date and location of the fire, based upon smoke concentration? Quote
klenke Posted February 14, 2005 Posted February 14, 2005 Is that the fire that was going in Reynolds Creek in early September? Quote
Blake Posted February 14, 2005 Author Posted February 14, 2005 Is that the fire that was going in Reynolds Creek in early September? Sure was. I was camped a few miles north in the Fish Creek drainage, but I made a "Klenke-esqe" day of summit bagging, and visited Gray, Courtney, Buttermilk, and Oval, staying as high as possible along the way. I then looped down across the Oval Lakes and back up the shoulder of Gray Peak and down to the summit trail, then north to my camp. I later learned that I had been in a closed-off area while on the Twisp River side of the drainage. There are spots up there where you can see all but one of Washington's "niners". Quote

Goode is visible from both spots though.... Sorry. In my haste I neglected to reference the comment klenke makes for this photo: "In the foreground right of center is Pk 7450 near the head of Rainbow Creek(#13). Mt. Logan is on horizon and Mt. Goode is at far left." In the words of my real and complex analysis prof: "the rest is trivial!" Nice photo. Quote

Jake Posted February 14, 2005 Posted February 14, 2005 Tuckaway Lake is cool. I swear I caught the same fish in there three times in a row. Ooo ooo ooo, can I play? Please? Please can I?...

nolanr Posted February 14, 2005 Posted February 14, 2005 Sloan is visible from just about everywhere, seems like a topographical anomaly (if there even is such a thing) for a peak that's not among the higher in the state, but it's become a running joke w/ some of my climbing friends that if you aren't sure what a peak on the horizon is it must be Sloan.

klenke Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 This is a view roughly north from somewhere around Tyee Ridge (possibly Signal Peak thereon). Duncan Hill and Gopher Mountain are at left; Cardinal Peak is at right. The river below is the Entiat. MisterMo: not sure exactly what C is but Painted Mountain is in that area. E is probably Kyes Peak. It's definitely the Monte Cristo Group. G is Mt. Bruseth (most likely). Quote
Blake Posted February 15, 2005 Author Posted February 15, 2005 Tuckaway Lake is cool. I swear I caught the same fish in there three times in a row. Yeah, but I probably caught it a few times first. I believe Tuckaway is one of the state's highest lakes with a healthy fish population. Quote
MisterMo Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 MisterMo: not sure exactly what C is but Painted Mountain is in that area. E is probably Kyes Peak. It's definitely the Monte Cristo Group. G is Mt. Bruseth (most likely). I fussed a bit with my giant wall sized geologic map of the state, the only one handy enough and big enough. E seems awfully far "east' to be Keyes, etc. even allowing for how far east the camera point is. wouldn't be the first time I've been fooled though.. Quote
klenke Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Well, you have to remember you're at heavy zoom, so that'll effect spatial bearings. From the Sahale perspective the MC Group would definitely be left of Sloan. Furthermore, the profile of Kyes is correct for that angle of viewing (about eight degrees east of due north). See here.
