Does this rock have a name?

[mccallboater]

Time to guess where this nice looking norwand is.

 

 

[drater]

how big?

 

 

I'm thinking Roothan.

 

 

How bout some beta on those bolders up by Mt. Hall you mentioned?

[mccallboater]

Nice guess. Wrong. Google earth indicates the face is about 600' to the snow patch. Clue:

 

Connected with the topic of this thread.

[drater]

North face of Myrtle Peak?

 

 

I need to find this picture of a mountain in Boundary County on the cover of this real estate guide I have somewhere, see if you know what it is. Super impressive cliffs flanking this mountain, citadel looking.

[mccallboater]

Nope. Next clue. The shot was taken from the top of the turtle.

[mccallboater]

Come on people. This is not that hard. Google Earth shows enough detail to pick out the line up the middle, if you want another clue.

[dan_forester]

I have no idea.

 

How about this diminutive and whimsical formation:

 

john frieh knows where it is I bet.

North Face of Harrison? I am bummed that the Pack River road is still out (late fall maybe; spring probably. The Bee Hive was calling...anyone got an ATV I can borrow - they say the temp bridge will take an ATV of motor cycle

Looks like Utah to me. Yeah... Utah... the only good rock in Idaho is @ the city anyways

[dan_forester]

yes, it's true there's a real shortage of climbable rock in Idaho.

 

I bet you've walked right underneath this particular formation, though.

[mccallboater]

We have a winner! DIng DIng! N Face of Harrison! Now for my guess. The last picture is the saddle and SE ridge of Lions Head.

[dan_forester]

which lion's head are you thinking of?

 

(but that's not it...)

[spotly]

That would be the ridge North (left) as you head up to Lions Creek TH (to Devils Slide area)?

[dan_forester]

no. you're hundreds of miles off. 1 point for the range, 2 points for the drainage it's near or the ridge it's on. 1000 points if you come up with a name (I'm betting it's nameless, but who knows).

[mccallboater]

Ok. I'll bite. Sawtooths, near Finger of Fate (since that particular crag has notariaty with this group) OR somewhere around Ship island Lake.

[dan_forester]

mccall boater has scored 1 point for identifying the correct range!

 

not near the finger, or ship island lake.

 

it is near a lake though!

 

 

[spotly]

More clues please Elevation?

[dan_forester]

~8500 ft.

 

near the "longest technical rock climb in the Sawtooths"

 

no more clues!

 

It would be cool if someone knew if it was a named feature.

I was up there last weekend. Pretty big washout. The forest service ranger up there told me it was Priority #1 once they got some money for roads in the district.

 

ATV/motorcycle/MTB no problem.

It's a new day when the Idaho Forum is as hot as it is now. Nice work boys!

[spotly]

Impossible in a 4X4? I hear the road coming in the other side is finally open but I'd rather avoid that 8+ miles round trip hike.

 

Might see if there's a place that rents ATVs near there (doubtful). I'd bike it but doubt my injured shoulder-elbow-wrist-hand could handle the bumps very well.
