I dont have every many named peaks, but I have this one that is a hated place, so the bonus will be just identifying the mountain! A fairly popular one...for hwy 2.

North side view of something. You love your Bear Creek. Could be north rib of triplets. Maybe Twin Peaks from similar area, but I would guess triplet rocks.

North side is correct.but wrong wilderness...you can see this part of the creek from the summit....its looks calm from there, but its actually a wobbly frustrating scramble. I'll put another pic of the white south side tommorow..but then it'lll be easy.

What peak is in the middle distance (not way off in the back and not the closest).
