Name that peak! Visual Trivia.

That looks like "Not A Clue" Peak above Whatchamacallit Road.

You're in the Prairie Fork somewhere? Looking at Pt. 6025? Never been so just a wild-ass guess.

Imma think about it for a bit but I wanna piggyback off Rico and say it's one of the old WWII or so era logging roads near Prairie Fork. I remember seeing them hiking into Fish Fork from over there.

Between the two of you (Uncle Rico & Taco) is the correct answer. That's technically the Fish Fork Trail 3N08 just above Lupine Camp looking towards Blue Ridge.

Yeah, that trail is wide like an old logging road.

In fairness, his answer included the words fork and fish.

The next should rightfully proceed to the winners, but @Sean asked about an unsolved image from last October:

Is it Hoyt seen from down Big Tujunga way?

Not Hoyt and not Big Tujunga but you are very close.

That looks like Josephine in the back but I can't make sense of the foreground. If you took the picture from La Canada, and knowing something about your area of special interest, I'll guess Mt. Washburn.

I'm voting for Silver Mtn (3,385).

@Elwood - Sorry, not Silver.

@Sean - Right you are! - Let's call it the Washburn group, ridge defined by peaks 3650 to 4202 just west of Switzer's Camp and vicinity. Normally, it blends in as just another bump below Josephine, but the light and shadows that day brought it into clear focus behind the dark backdrop when viewed from Cherry Canyon park in La Canada. You're it!

Oh, Cherry Canyon! I've only been there once or twice and didn't pay attention to the views northward.

If Taco or Rico don't post something today, I'll do one tomorrow.
