Voted 10/10 | One of the best- captures just how big this peak is compared to the surrounding terrain | | Posted Mar 20, 2006 5:14 am |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Sean. Not sure if you’ve ever been over on that side, but the climb up from Baker Lake, especially the last half mile or so up to Castle Divide is just awesome. Castle Peak is in your face the whole time. | | Posted Mar 20, 2006 4:17 pm |

Hasn't voted | Impressive. Is that a rock glacier at its foot? | | Posted Aug 6, 2006 12:26 am |
| | Super Dave | Re: Rock Glacier | |
Hasn't voted | Interesting question. I’m not positive, but I don’t believe so. The climate in this part of Idaho probably is not optimal for a rock glacier (But I don’t have any expertise on the subject.) It does look pretty similar to other photos of rock glaciers that are out there. | | Posted Aug 7, 2006 6:15 pm |

Hasn't voted | Thanks, glad you liked it. It was a beautiful day, with lots of color contrast between the blue skies, white rock, new green foliage, and patches of snow.

Hasn't voted | Big pretty much sums it up. Castle towers over all surrounding peaks, and is easy to identify from a long way away in all directions. | | Posted Sep 15, 2007 9:47 am |
| mtybumpo | Wow! | | 
Voted 10/10 | That's pretty much all I can say about this one! Just awesome! | | Posted Sep 16, 2007 4:15 pm |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Abram. Castle is obviously huge from all directions, but this is the most impressive angle to view the peak from, in my opinion. | | Posted Jan 3, 2008 7:02 pm |
