Voted 10/10 | Check the TopoZone link for the true location of Middle Peak's summit. For whatever reason, the USGS didn't survey Middle Peak's highest point, which interpolates to an elevation of 13,300'. The two are very close in elevation, however, and it would take a hand-level to make this determination for certain.
I'll have to dig up my San Juans book, but there's an interesting side-note about the history of the names of Middle and Dolores, and if I'm remebering rightly, it lends credence to the idea that Middle is the taller. I'll post it later! |
