Re: Looks more like

Again, thanks. I was pretty beat on this day, with one of the main effects being that I apparently, couldn't tell east from west or north from south!

Did you ...

Did you approach this peak from the PCT or Twin Lakes on the east? I was going to say ... looks like a long HAUL from Tuolumne Meadows. So, this is on the northern boundary of Yosemite???
Awesome. And to think most climbers are attracted to something more accessible. WOW !!! Great lighting!

Re: Did you ...

Twin lakes. Couldn't have done it in one day by the route we did (Double Dihedral), so camped up by an icy lake. And yeah, I think the peak itself is in Yosemite... you're right, trekking there from any trailhead in the park would be long. Thanks for the good words on the shot! Cheers -
