Posting on behalf of Dr. John Roper:

A history for the naming of this peak.



To use one of John's favorite words, "Pinnacle Peak" is prosaic. And "Chopping Block" is somewhat a misnomer.

LOL Klenke, what a great story! I love how the pancakes helped them decide to turn around LMAO.



I kinda like the name "Stump" better myself.



This had me smiling too:



"For those folks who answered "Chopping Block," you've got to wonder if they ever chopped wood on a chopping block. Don't you want a flat, level top for that? Take a look at those rocky roots growing into the ground, and reconsider." LOL too funny



Thanks for posting the history ... I love it!



= )))
