MarkP Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 (edited) I originally posted this in the newbies section, so I wouldn't waste space here... but it was suggested to post it here since it would get much more traffic. I appologize for this semi off topic. I have been attempting to identify the mt/peaks, and lake, in this painting scene... I was originally told at purchase this was of the Twin Sisters (antique store, probably clueless)... I wasn't convinced of this, and have been attempting to correctly identify for quite sometime (museums, art galleries).. I decided to try here since someone has probably climbed these peaks. I have very good reason to believe this group of peaks are in the Pacific NW. One poster responded that they appeared to be the Hozameen group.. this very well could be. Any additional opinions/responses would be very much appreciated. Again sorry for the OT & thanks Edited September 6, 2007 by MarkP Quote
Tom_Sjolseth Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 It looks to be Hozomeen from the Southwest, from a perspective just S of Silver Creek and above the shores of Upper Ross Lake. Little Jackass Mtn in front. Assuming all that is correct, then the peaks in the painting (in order) would be: North Hozomeen, Little Jackass, Point 7383, and South Hozomeen. The Lake in the painting would be Ross Lake. Quote

PONCHO&LEFTY Posted September 6, 2007 Posted September 6, 2007 I don't know if this helps, but here is Hozomeen from Ross (it's from the West). Quote
G-spotter Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 I don't know if this helps, but here is Hozomeen from Ross (it's from the West). your photo is taken from further north than in the painting. Quote
Winter Posted September 11, 2007 Posted September 11, 2007 artists take great liberties with subjects like this, so you may never know fer sure. as an oregon boy, that looks like an artist's melodramatic rendition of Broken Top. Quote
RedBeard Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 Have you ever seen Bob Ross paint something that he didn't pull out of his ass? Quote
Hendershot Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 reminds me of my ex, Mount Anything Quote
cheamclimber Posted September 20, 2007 Posted September 20, 2007 that look a lot like Mt Hozomeen in Manning Park Area Quote
