My theory was wrong. Need a Sean or a Taco to tackle this.

How about Ross, BP, Iron & Baldy from somewhere to the SSE.

The top of Ross has trees, though.

OK then. This one should be easy, but I'm still not entirely sure.

Not my photo. From here. A few weeks ago somebody took this image of the snowy peaks from the city somewhere:

What were they looking at?

Actually wait, that one isn't hard. Maybe this is what I was thinking of. Harder.

Yeah, yeah, yeah

What's the big snowy thing in the middle? Or the thing behind it?

Snowy thing in the middle is probably Mendenhall. behind it is that long E-W ridge with Magic Mountain on it?

I guess you must do one now? Do one now!

Okay, you should know the peaks in the distance, but which peak am I standing on? Only one guess per player!

Post by **Uncle Rico** » Mon Jan 13, 2020 6:42 pm

Copter Ridge?

Post by **dima** » Mon Jan 13, 2020 7:36 pm

Wouldn't you see Ross Mtn ridge first? Ross mtn!

Post by **HikeUp** » Mon Jan 13, 2020 9:33 pm

Ross - though it seems too high.

Elwood · Post by **Elwood** » Tue Jan 14, 2020 6:36 am

Rattlesnake?

Post by **Sean** » Tue Jan 14, 2020 12:46 pm

Nope. Anymore guesses?

Mt. Hawkins

Post by **dima** » Tue Jan 14, 2020 2:33 pm

S Hawkins? We're running out of peaks

Yes!

Post by **dima** » Wed Jan 15, 2020 9:56 am

What? Really? Turns out the view from S Hawkins, Copter and Ross is somewhat similar. And you were looking at Fish Fork AND Iron Fork. This was my second guess, and I already posted a photo. Rico, want to do one?
